> Hungary will introduce a multibillion-forint afforestation program, offering non-repayable grants through 2030 to plant millions of trees and develop forests, waterfront promenades and green corridors. It emphasizes drought-resistant species and water retention. The 10 Million Trees group called it “a good start” but urged wider ecological reforms.
