Maribor

In the Association EPEKA, Soc. Ent., for several years we have been organizing events aimed at raising awareness among young people about climate change. As we continue to fight for a clean environment, we decided to celebrate Earth Day locally; by organizing an event in which we will organize a selection for the most beautiful tree that adorns the Municipality of Maribor.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE?

Do you have a favorite? Participate! Any individual who will send us a photo of their favorite tree or post a photo of the tree on the social network Facebook by April 20, 2021 can contribute to the selection. Please include the #missdreves key when posting photos so that you don’t miss any of the posts. You can send us photos via a private message to the Epeka Slovenia profile, you can publish them on your profiles with a key, or you can also send them to us at the e-mail address: missdreves@gmail.com. Please also specify the location of the tree you are proposing for each post (address or coordinates so that the expert commission can view the trees live).

The commission, consisting of arborist Tanja Grmovšek, recipient of the prestigious international award ‘True Professional of Arboriculure’ and Neva Pipan, project manager at the Municipality of Maribor and president of the Maribor Tourist Board, will select the most beautiful tree from your proposals, on Earth Day.

On Thursday, April 22, 2021 at 11 a.m., a press conference will be held under the winning tree, focusing on the importance of environmental protection in the urban environment.
