Another 3000 trees to be donated and planted in properties owned by the BAM Holdings and its subsidiaries.
The ceremony welcomed over 2,000 participants and is the first project instigated and executed by BAM Green & The Bamunuarachchi Foundation for 2020, to promote sustainability throughout Sri Lanka, in an effort to move towards a new decade, with a new vision.
In addition, all participants were gifted a complimentary Biodegradable bag named the “Haritha Bag”.
BAM Green selected the Mee Tree due to its ability to grow to approximately 20 meters in height and that they are predominantly found in a mixed deciduous forest.
In addition, each part of this native tree is used as a versatile resource for skin care, cooking oil, detergents, fertilizer, alcohol, food as well as herbal medicines.
The properties of the tree allow for chemical absorption from the soil and works to double the creation of oxygen.
