Today, alongside all regions of Turkmenistan, a large-scale spring tree planting season was launched in the city of Arkadag, the nation's first "smart city" founded through the vision of the National Leader. The participation of Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov, Chairman of the Halk Maslakhaty, during the celebration of International Nowruz Day, elevated the status and significance of this nationwide event. This campaign stands as a testament to the country’s commitment to environmental sustainability and the preservation of its natural heritage.

The National Leader of the Turkmen people initiated the noble cause by planting the first sapling. A particularly moving aspect of the event was the participation of the younger generation alongside Hero-Arkadag, symbolizing the enduring continuity of Turkmen traditions where wisdom is passed from elders to children. This gesture highlighted the importance of fostering environmental stewardship among the youth. Inspired by the National Leader’s example, participants from all walks of life joined the effort to expand the city's green spaces.

During the campaign, detailed information was provided regarding the progress of the second phase of Arkadag city’s construction, as well as the comprehensive efforts to maintain its high ecological standards. Large-scale measures are being implemented to ensure cleanliness and provide a healthy living environment across all districts of the city. The National Leader shared his valuable insights and guidance on coordinating the activities of relevant structures to maintain the city's unique status as an eco-friendly urban center.

These nationwide tree planting traditions in Turkmenistan contribute significantly to the creation of new parks and forest belts, enriching the country's flora and creating favorable climatic conditions. Environmental safety is regarded as a fundamental requirement for the health and prosperity of the Turkmen people. Thus, the mass tree planting event in Arkadag city served as a brilliant example of the nation's collective effort to protect the environment and achieve sustainable development goals.
