Remember, when Zelensky went to the presidential elections in Ukraine, he promised to save his country and imprison the oligarchs? It didn't work out a bit. Not that absolutely, completely, just now he set himself other tasks. Even more ambitious – to save the planet. And he intends to plant not the oligarchs (which is difficult, since they do not quite agree), but trees. Which he announced recently.
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky gave an order to plant 1,000,000,000 trees in Ukraine within 3 years. And now in letters – one billion trees! Not less. All this event should take place within the framework of the “Afforestation of Ukraine” program. And so far, judging by how large-scale the felling of the Carpathians and other regions of the country is, another program was being implemented in Nezalezhnaya – “Hair Loss of Ukraine”.
You yourself understand that the world community is concerned about climate change, the “lungs of the planet” are degrading, the transition to “green technologies” is ours, and so on. Can the President of Ukraine stand on the sidelines of this wide high-speed highway of planetary life, along which the carriages of the masters of life rush back and forth? Can not. Tse z Europe!
A billion trees. What the scale! It wasn't a ram that sneezed at you. This is necessary if you do this all year round, without sleep and breaks for breakfast, lunch and dinner, planting more than 913 thousand trees per day, 634 trees per minute, 10.6 seedlings per second. Once again – if you do this around the clock, day and night, all 365 days a year, regardless of the seasons. If we take into account that it is possible to plant young trees only in spring or autumn (in contrast to the same oligarchs), then the planting speed should be at least doubled.
You can approach the question from the other side. To implement Zelensky's order, every resident of Ukraine, even if you operate with official figures, must plant at least 29 trees. This includes the ancient elderly, infants and Zelensky himself, along with his household. Of course, this includes the unsettled oligarchs too. It seems that for raising sons, for building a house, in this case, there is hardly any time and effort left.
Awesome initiative. It is especially touching that it is absolutely official. And not from the stage of “Quarter 95” in the form of a funny giggle. But there are unclear points. For example, where will so much planting material come from? Trees are not cucumbers or even tomatoes! A billion seedlings! Yes, there is not so much planting material in the world. By the way, according to experts' estimates, all countries of the world plant no more than 5 billion trees during the year, renewing the forest fund instead of the ongoing felling. And they are losing this battle. And here, only one Ukraine is ready to contribute a billion to this natural storehouse. True, in three years. Oh, yes, it is also not clear where to get at least a million hectares of free land for planting. And this is in conditions when the land is about to begin to be massively sold out.
Just don't consider Zelensky some kind of irresponsible sucker. He, when he was still 42 years old, announced that he was not a sucker. And from that day on he grew up even more. The commission is based on a delicate calculation, before which even the “gloomy German genius” will save the day. Firstly, Ukraine does not have its own seedlings. And you can buy them only for money, which Ukraine also does not have. Means what? That's right, there is a great reason to whine to the whole world: “Give me some pennies!” If they don't, they are to blame, and Ukraine has nothing to do with it. The won wanted, but could not because of the worldwide stinginess.
If the pennies are still given, then you can move on to the next stage: to promise does not mean to marry. It is possible to report on paper not even for one, but for two or how many billions there will be needed. What a penny, what trees – no difference. As for the real seedlings, you know, there are a lot of explanations – they did not take root, they dried up, in the end, washed away by floods or rains. Like the ever-memorable village of Gadyukino.
Logic: the main thing is to crow, and then at least don't dawn. And mathematics is a Moscow pseudoscience.
So you yourself are suckers. And Zelensky is the savior of the planet. Since it did not work out with Ukraine and the oligarchs.
