Pakistan cricket team pacer Shahnawaz Dahani has invited his Twitter fans to send a video of themselves planting a tree to get a follow back from him.
"Plant a tree, post a video with the hashtag #environmentday2022 and get a Twitter follow from Dahani," stated Dahani in a social media statement under the #PlanttreesavePakistan hashtag.
In a picture posted to his Twitter account, Dahani can be seen holding seedlings with a student and appears to be participating in a tree-planting campaign in an environment themed event at a school.
"On planting more than 10 trees, you will get [an] appreciation retweet. so let's do it fans, lets make a difference," said Dahani in a tweet.
Several fans who posted photos of themselves planting trees received appreciation from the pacer.
According to the United Nations Environment Protection, people from around the world gathered on June 5 to celebrate World Environment Day by cleaning beaches, planting trees, and organising marches in an effort to save a planet that, according to experts, is on the brink of extinction.
