Kingdom Aims to Plant 10 Million Trees in Capital

Saudi Arabia has announced the next phase of its Green Riyadh project, which aims to plant 10 million trees across the city by 2030.

The project is part of the country’s larger Vision 2030 sustainability program, seeking to reduce air pollution and combat desertification.

For Saudi readers, the focus is on improving living standards in the capital. For Indian audiences, analysts highlight the Gulf’s increasing commitment to climate goals, which may influence energy markets linked to South Asia.

The initiative also includes new parks, water recycling systems, and shaded pedestrian walkways.
