  • With volunteer assistance, Delhi's forest department plans to carry out its first tree census in 2024.

  • It was previously carried out in many parts of Delhi by activists and locals.

  • City woodlands will be the first to be counted.

  • Controlling unlawful felling and ensuring that the city stays green are the two main goals of the census.

  • The following information will be recorded as part of the census:

  1. GPS coordinates

  2. Location

  3. Type

  4. Girth

  5. Health of each tree.

  • They can use this to prioritize important tasks.
