Environmental challenges know no borders. From rising temperatures to biodiversity loss, these issues demand collective action. In Saudi Arabia, we are responding to this global call through a model grounded in partnership, collaborating with international organizations, scientific institutions and private innovators to deliver lasting environmental protection.
Under Vision 2030, the Kingdom has embarked on a transformative journey to decarbonize its economy and restore its ecosystems. But what is especially powerful is how this journey is being shaped not only by local resolve but by global cooperation. Across ministries, research centers and giga-projects, Saudi Arabia is partnering with the world to deliver outcomes that serve both people and planet.
At the heart of Saudi Arabia’s environmental agenda is the Saudi Green Initiative — a program aiming to plant 10 billion trees, rehabilitate 40 million hectares of degraded land, and reduce carbon emissions by more than 278 million tonnes per year. SGI has aligned with global partners such as the UN Environment Programme, UNFCCC and the World Economic Forum’s 1t.org platform, helping to situate the Kingdom’s afforestation and restoration efforts within a broader planetary framework.
