Tree planting day 2019
Arbor Day 2019 is on Tuesday, March 12.
March 12 is China's Arbor Day. The reason why it is designated as Arbor Day is to commemorate Dr. Sun Yat Sen. Dr. Sun Yat Sen formulated the first tree planting day in China during his tenure in the Beiyang government. He was also the first group of people to advocate afforestation in China. After the founding of the people's Republic of China, it was decided that March 12, the day of death of Sun Yat Sen, was designated as tree planting day.

What meaningful activities can we do on tree planting day
Participate in afforestation activities
Whether in the city or in the countryside, participation in afforestation activities starts from our side. It can afforest the vacant area in front of and behind the house, and actively participate in the work of returning farmland to forest. Not only do we plant trees, we can also grow flowers, even if it's just a pot of succulent plants. At the same time, the protection of flowers and trees will be implemented in life.
Understand the related knowledge of forest protection
Afforestation
When Arbor Day comes, whether we live in the dense forest deep in the mountains or in the city with high-rise buildings, we can learn some knowledge about forest protection, forest fire prevention and forest fire fighting, pay attention to protecting the diversity of forest system, and understand the development of local forestry, etc.
Implement environmental protection
On tree planting day, you might as well be a green guard. Post your self-made environmental protection manual newspaper on the community's bulletin board, and go with your friends to clean up the garbage on the street corridor. It's not suitable for disposable tableware, plastic bags and so on. These things you can do with your hands are as important as planting trees.
