An old landfill can become a vast urban forest.
You too can contribute by donating trees!

 

Appeal for the San Giorgio Martire Forest in BariVery recently, Bari's Environment Councillor, Pietro Petruzzelli , invited citizens and businesses to contribute to the creation of an urban forest on the outskirts of Bari.

The area identified is a former municipal landfill in San Giorgio Martire , located near the sanctuary of the Madonna della Grotta and the San Nicola stadium , the aim of which is to transform it into the city's first true urban forest urban forestation project , which will use funds for green urbanism initiatives, also aims to involve private individuals, so as to be able to add further resources to those already allocated and plant numerous young trees in an area of ​​over 60,000 square meters .

This effort therefore aims to create the city's green lung in an area that has been unused for over forty years and which, with the support of citizens and the social responsibility of some companies, could become a new jewel in the crown of the capital of Puglia .

What can you do for Bari?

Urban forest in Bari, former landfillIf this city has fascinated you and you've promised yourself you'll return, perhaps even making small investments in the area, why not consider contributing to a worthy cause like the creation of a large urban forest ?

If private resources were added to municipal funds, a significant result could be achieved both for the city and the environment. The planting and growth of several thousand trees and shrubs would increase oxygen production and significantly reduce carbon dioxide emissions, all to the benefit of Bari , its people, and above all, our planet, which, especially in recent decades, has truly needed it.

Around 10,000 trees , therefore, could be added to the more than 30,000 already present in our splendid city, in the heart of Puglia .

What are you waiting for? Contact the City of Bari or the Environment Councilor Petruzzelli and respond to this wonderful appeal.
Our city will be grateful.

Where will the urban forest be built?
