Aamir
Khan
is
overwhelmed
with
pride
and
the
reason
for
it
is
Paani
Foundation's
recent
achievement.
In
the
span
of
2
years
starting
September
2018,
inspired
by
the
great
Japanese
ecologist
Akira
Miyawaki-
Paani
foundation
in
association
with
Saytrees
Environmental
trust
embarked
on
their
highly
ambitious
journey,
to
turn
a
barren
patch
of
land
into
a
forest.
Two
years
later,
september
2020
this
project
was
successfully
completed.
The
foundation
planted
2000
saplings
with
the
support
of
villagers
from
Satara
district,
Maharashtra.
A
careful
mix
of
tree
species
was
selected
to
mimic
a
forest
and
minutest
attention
was
paid
to
the
detail
of
the
plantation
so
that
they
grew
at
a
rapid
speed.
The
final
outcome
is
tremendous
and
to
be
proud
of
-
extremely
dense
forest
with
healthy
trees,
habitat
to
animals,
insects
and
much
more.
Sharing
a
heartfelt
video,
Aamir
wrote,
"Really
proud
of
this
experiment
done
by
the
team.
Please
watch
and
give
me
your
reactions.
Love.
a."
Aamir
Khan,
Kiran
Rao
and
the
entire
Paani
Foundation
team
has
been
engaging
in
water
conservation
activities
in
and
around
Maharashtra
for
many
years
now.
The
incredible
time
and
efforts
of
the
foundation
has
enabled
humans,
plants
and
animals
to
interact
harmoniously.
Their
efforts
have
sprouted
lush,
green
forests
in
barren
drylands.
