Burgas Municipality fights air pollution through mass planting of saplings

In 2020 hundreds of saplings will be planted in the coastal city of Burgas within the frameworks of the campaign Plant A Tree as a measure against air pollution. Some of the money necessary for the purchase of the saplings will come from the higher local tax levied on the old vehicles. By the end of April nearly 300 young trees (oak, amber tree, hornbeam, sycamore, etc) will be planted in the coastal city. The number of newly planted trees in Buras municipality has to increase significantly in the next three to four years.
