Faculty representatives took part in the social action "I Love the Forest"
On the 16th of May, the students together with the administration of the faculty, took part in the social action "I Love the Forest". More than 400 new trees were planted during the campaign, 80 of which were donated to Vilnius City by the Faculty of Transport Engineering of VILNIUS TECH. The organisers of the initiative are the Transport Innovation Association, of which we are a member since 2021.
The aim of this initiative is not only to reduce pollution and freshen up the air, but also to nurture and beautify the environment.
"I am glad that by taking part in the noble action "I Love the Forest", i.e. by planting beautiful trees (fir and birch), we have contributed to reducing CO2 and create a cleaner and more sustainable environment!" - says the Dean of the Faculty, Prof. Dr. Olegas Prentkovskis.
According to scientists' calculations, all the trees we have planted will absorb as much as 75 tonnes of CO2 in the future!
