In 2010, Information Technology Integrators (ITi) contributed over P1,000 towards the University of Botswana’s United Nations Tree Planting Initiative. This effort was part of a broader environmental campaign aimed at promoting sustainability, raising awareness on climate change, and enhancing the green spaces within academic institutions.
The impact of tree planting is far-reaching. Trees act as natural air filters, absorbing pollutants and releasing essential oxygen, which improves air quality and reduces respiratory issues. They also play a crucial role in sequestering carbon, helping to mitigate the effects of climate change. Additionally, trees provide habitats for wildlife, support biodiversity, and prevent soil erosion by stabilizing the ground with their roots. These benefits collectively contribute to healthier ecosystems and more resilient communities.
By supporting tree planting efforts, ITi emphasized the importance of corporate social responsibility (CSR) in tackling global environmental challenges at the local level. This initiative not only helped improve the campus environment but also served as an educational tool for students, highlighting the critical role of trees in combating climate change and promoting biodiversity.
