In a bid to nurture the environment, NWSC has partnered with the Ministry of Water and Environment and NFA to plant over 10 million trees in all NWSC areas of operation.
The initiative geared towards mitigation of climate change and conservation of the environment has already compelled the planting of over 2 million trees all over the country.
The second phase was launched during the Parliamentary Natural Resources Committee’s visit to the recently completed Katosi Water works and therefore witnessed the planting of over 30 trees by the visiting committee and Board Members of NWSC.
The corporation intends to even achieve greater results with the second phase of the campaign.
Notably, members of the School Water and Sanitation club were present to preached the gospel about the “importance of planting trees” in song and poetry. A great treat to those present.
The NWSC GREEN TREE-VOLUTION campaign aims to contribute towards preserving the environment and catchment areas by ensuring sustainable water supply to our esteemed customers, contributing towards improvement of water quality at water sources hence reducing water treatment costs and addressing the risk of the deteriorating and depleting raw water sources.
