Chennai Corporation To Allow Residents Into Miyawaki Forests
In six months, the Greater Chennai Corporation would admit residents into the Miyawaki forests grown across 30 locations of the city. Reportedly, the residents would be permitted to extract medicinal herbs for personal usage. The Miyawaki forests employ a renowned Japanese method of closely planting native species in the same area to regenerate all layers of original forests. This revolutionary technique of urban afforestation favours biodiversity and regulates pollution.
