The El Paso Times reports on this Saturday's (July 5) tree-planting drive in Juarez, Mexico. City officials and residents will plant 2,500 trees across the city "as part of national reforestation effort across Mexico."
Vast areas of Mexico's indigenous rainforests have been cut down due to rapid industrialization and population growth and today only 10% still survives.
Tree-planting drives across the country such as in Juarez hope to plant five million new trees.
