The presidency of Tishk International University (TIU) organized a special event named  “Tree Planting Day” for all administration and academic staff of TIU. Previously computer engineering department planted tens of trees inside our campus. This time the out yard of the campus selected to be planted.

Dr. Idris Hadi Salih, Head of board of trustees and president of university, lecturers and volunteer students participated in planting nearly 200 trees outside of the university on March 14, 2019.

“As it is known, the trees play such an important role in our environment. They absorb harmful carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and produce the oxygen we all need to breathe. Their roots prevent erosion by holding the soil intact and filter water by removing pollutants. With the reality of increasingly unpredictable weather patterns and more frequent and violent storms/floods”. (From National Geographic).
