Fiji must preserve the environment and plan for sustainable use of natural resources.
Those were the words of Director Future Forests Fiji Roderic Evers while addressing staff and volunteers at Mark One Apparel Ltd during the Mission Green Earth Stand Up and Take Action event.
Evers said people should take a step further by speaking out and taking action by planting trees.
He also said that Fiji should ensure that certain procedures are followed to ensure that trees are not logged.
He added that in a world which is experiencing unprecented deforestation and widespread global environmental threats that bring in a form of climate change, erosion and water scarcity there is something spiritual and intuitively right about planting a tree.
