A week long plantation campaign under the auspices of Department of Environmental Sciences at COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, Abbottabad, concluded with plantation of trees by the Worthy Director Dr. Haroon Rashid, faculty members and the students on March 05, 2009. This event was organized as a part of Environmental Year at CIIT Abbottabad campus which will ensure the greener campus as global warming is becoming a growing concern. More than three hundred plants have been planted on campus this spring with a view to make the campus ever green. Dr. Haroon Rashid inaugurated the ceremony and appreciated the efforts made by the team responsible for the activity and expressed his belief that students will own at least one plant so that the success rate may reach to 100%. Students committed to come up to the expectations of the Director. The enthusiasm and overwhelming response of those who participated in the final day activity was obvious. Most of all, the event displayed the complete involvement and team work towards promoting the cause of Environment conservation. CIIT Abbottabad has been playing a vital role in eliminating the environmental hazards by organizing such events regularly and is committed to make this planet a safe and worth living place.
