Ethiopia Lunches National Public Mobilization Campaign Against Environmental Pollution

By: Habtamu Ashagrie

Ethiopia has launched a six-month national public mobilization campaign to combat environmental
pollution and its complications. Speaking on the occasion, Deputy Prime Minister Temesgen Tiruneh
stated that the green development initiative has borne fruits in Ethiopia.

After the green legacy initiative incorporated by Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, 32.2 billion seedlings have
been planted over the past five years. "Following the green legacy initiative program initiated by Abiy
Ahmed, successful achievements have been registered in Ethiopia," Tiruneh pointed out.

The Deputy Prime Minister highlighted that Ethiopia is implementing four programs to combat
environmental pollution across the country. Due to the effective greenery activities in Ethiopia, the
country's green coverage is increasing, Tiruneh underlined.

This campaign aims to protect against plastic, air, soil, water, sound, and environmental pollution in
order to create a favorable living environment in Ethiopia. The Deputy Prime Minister called upon all
stakeholders to properly implement the campaign at all levels.

Tiruneh emphasized that the green development initiative has yielded positive results in Ethiopia. After
Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed's green legacy initiative, billions of seedlings have been planted,
contributing to the country's environmental conservation efforts.

Ethiopia is taking a comprehensive approach by implementing four programs to address various forms
of pollution, including plastic, air, soil, water, and noise pollution. These initiatives are aimed at
improving the overall quality of the environment and creating a more sustainable living condition for the
nation.

The Deputy Prime Minister urged all stakeholders, including government agencies, private sector, civil
society organizations, and the general public, to actively participate in this national campaign and
contribute to its successful implementation at all levels.
