Kaliningrad: Residents raised money for maple alley
In Kaliningrad, residents raised money for a landing of 70 maples, a correspondent of the Sever. Reali site reports. The first maples of social activists landed in 2017. The idea belonged to the co -chair of the public organization "Eco -Protection!" Alexander Koroleva . After five criminal cases were brought to her, she left Russia.
“About fifty people donated funds to us, the amounts were from one hundred rubles, and up to 20 thousand. Everyone participated as they could. It was even possible to participate in the collection, even if you have no money by collecting waste paper. Thus, we transferred one and a half tons of the surrendered waste paper,” says Anna Alimpieva, the organization of funds. All this time, seedlings are provided by the owner of the private nursery Igor Bakharovsky.
In the pre -war years, a maple alley was already growing at this place, but after the traffic police ordered, it was almost cut down. According to state inspectors, trees growing along the roads provoke accidents. "Our trees run out and break the cars on the road, and not drivers do not observe the speed limit," says Alimpieva.
This year, about 60 people helped to dig and plant trees. Some provided water supply, others set a table with tea and food for social activists, others were directly engaged in landing. Among them are Anna Plashichuk: “I am a dendrofil, the trees are a component of my life. When I found out that the trees will be cut down on my street, I started collecting signatures for the salvation of ashs. And six to seven ashs managed to preserve. This is my active experience, just after communicating with the Alley of the Kaliningrad Region and the subject in the subject.” Anna has been helping eco -activists since 2017, but has been participating in the landings for the first time.
The further plans of the activists are the landing of various species of trees in different parts of the region: “We want to raise funds to conduct year -round, and not just before planting trees. After all, it is easier for someone to throw one hundred rubles every month, and not once 1,500. In addition, we will invite residents to choose where to plant the alleys,” Anna Alimyeva was in terms of plans.
