Tree planting drive to protect urban green spaces

Johannesburg City Parks and Zoo says a tree-planting initiative is about more than simply adding trees to the city's landscape.

Speaking to SABC News at Mushroom Farm Park in Sandton, the city entity said bringing different stakeholders and communities together reflects the shared responsibility to create and protect green spaces.

City Parks says trees play a vital role in the urban environment, and educating young people about environmental care is equally important.
