Working together for five years, the Rotarians have planted a windbreak forest in various strategic areas. The latest forest, consisting of 52,000 trees, has been planted in Choir. 

The forest, made up of hippophae trees and black currant bushes, reduces sand particles that can travel for hundreds of miles, causing health and environmental damage in Korea. 

The Korean Rotarians have spent $1.03 million on the project in the last five years. They have recently been awarded a $350,000 U.S. grant to expand the project in Mongolia.
