We challenge you!

200 trees have been planted this week! I did a security planting around the boundary of a possible goal for assault. These trees act as an extra wall, far more attractive than the usual walls and fences. This technique has been used in several countries with similar security problems, with good result. One Acacia from Australia is called Wait-a-little-bush: If you get stuck there. you stay for a while!
Due to many factors is a cooperation with the Ministry of Agriculture not possible. But since the administration provides many other ways to proceed I believe that we have during January and February planted more trees than the dept. of Forestry has done under this period.

In this noble competition for the well fare of Kurdistan: I hereby challenge the dept. of Forestry to with their own resources plant more than 10.000 trees this year and to have a survival rate over 80% at the end of 2009. We will certainly try to achieve this goal at Trees for Kurdistan.
