“How trees clean our air”: Interactive Activity by CARE-C Researcher at the “sCYence Fair”

On the 30th of April 2026, CARE-C Research Fellow Anna Zenonos represented the Edu4Climate project at the “sCYence Fair” organised by The Cyprus Institute.

As part of the activities performed by The Cyprus Institute to raise awareness in the student community about the importance of taking measures to protect the environment Ms Zenonos prepared an interactive activity demonstrating how trees help reduce carbon dioxide (CO₂) in the atmosphere and improve air quality.

The activity aimed to help students understand the role of trees in carbon capture and climate change mitigation and how reforestation and urban greenery can reduce atmospheric CO₂.

The activity also strengthens public awareness efforts on the importance of studying air pollution and climate change.
