Polaris Bank Limited, in partnership with the Nigeria Conservation Foundation (NCF), has expanded its tree planting initiative to Kano State, as part of its commitment to nationwide land restoration. The latest phase of the initiative took place at Ajingi Community Reserve, Kunkurawa, Kano state, on Friday, August 30, 2024.
This marks a continuation of the bank’s efforts to combat environmental challenges, following the launch of its tree planting scheme on World Environment Day in June at Tai Solarin University of Education (TASUED), Ijagun, Ijebu Ode, Ogun State.
The 2024 tree planting initiative by Polaris Bank is centered around the theme “Land Restoration, Desertification, and Drought Resilience.” This theme highlights the urgency of addressing environmental degradation and building resilience against climate change impacts. Speaking at the Kano event, Mahmud Kawu, Polaris Bank’s Divisional Head, North, who represented the Managing Director/CEO, emphasized the bank’s unwavering commitment to environmental sustainability. He reiterated that sustainability is deeply embedded in the bank’s values and operations, from promoting responsible banking to community empowerment and environmental conservation.
Kawu further explained that the collaboration with the NCF reflects Polaris Bank’s dedication to sustainable economic growth and environmental preservation. The partnership aims to leverage NCF’s expertise in nature conservation and sustainable development to achieve broader ecological goals. “Today’s tree planting initiative at Ajingi Community Reserve, Kunkurawa, in collaboration with the Nigerian Conservation Foundation, is a testament to our commitment to environmental sustainability,” Kawu stated, urging local residents to actively participate in the scheme to ensure its long-term success.
The benefits of Polaris Bank’s tree-planting initiative extend beyond the immediate restoration of degraded areas. According to Kawu, the project is designed to prevent soil erosion, enhance biodiversity, and reduce carbon footprints. Trees absorb carbon dioxide, helping regulate the climate and contributing to overall ecological balance. This initiative also seeks to raise public awareness about the importance of environmental preservation and the need for community involvement in sustainable practices.
The tree-planting project in Kano is a clear demonstration of Polaris Bank’s commitment to environmental stewardship and community development. It underscores the bank’s corporate responsibility in promoting a greener future and aligns with its Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles.
“Our commitment to sustainability is reflected in every aspect of our operations,” Kawu concluded, reaffirming the bank’s dedication to driving positive environmental impact and fostering a culture of conservation across Nigeria.
