Earth Day. Embracing Sustainable Practices @ArenaCAD
Earth Day, celebrated on April 22nd, serves as a global reminder of the importance of environmental conservation and sustainable practices. At #ArenaCAD , we believe that Earth Day should extend beyond a single day and be embraced as a daily commitment. So we took the opportunity to organize a volunteering activity earlier this month that involved tree planting, teaming, and fostering creativity.?
Planting Trees for a Greener Future
At Ocolul Silvic S?cele, Romania, over 70% of the ArenaCAD team eagerly participated in our Earth Day initiative. With 1,000 trees to plant and 3 hours at our disposal, we mobilized our team to a steep slope in the forest, where the trees` survival rate stands at an impressive 80%. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the experts at Ocolul Silvic Sacele for their guidance and patience, equipping us with the necessary tools and knowledge to ensure the proper planting of the trees. The planting technique, which involves creating holes for the trees and checking their stability, is the most widely used method, so we had fun in learning how to do it the right way.
Why Planting Trees?
Planting trees brings numerous well-known benefits to the environment, and we are aware that we will enjoy these benefits later, in the future. However, beyond the positive impact on the environment, we hope that this initiative will foster a deeper sense of responsibility towards nature within our team and inspire others to follow. Every tree planted symbolizes our commitment to nurturing the planet and encourages a collective effort towards sustainability.

Teaming Activities and Unleashing Creativity
After an intense planting session, our team welcomed a well-deserved teaming activity: making barbecues. We shared stories, engaged in painting sessions, and witnessed the remarkable creativity of our 2D and 3D modelers outside the digital realm. The pictures below showcase the stunning canvas paintings that emerged from this creative exercise.?
For us, Earth Day is not just a one-day thing, but a reminder to integrate sustainable practices into our daily lives. Our volunteering initiative, combining tree planting, collaboration and teamwork, as long as artistic expression, allowed us to strengthen our bond as a team while making a positive impact on the environment. We are grateful for the active participation of our team members and the invaluable guidance from our friends at Ocolul Silvic Sacele, Romania.
Enjoy the pictures, and may you have a productive and environmentally conscious week ahead!
