Prof. Dr. Budak said, “As Ege University, we are in the area where the fire incident took place in the past days, near the Orhanlı Village of Seferihisar. We are implementing a new project in this field, where our teachers, students from all our faculties, colleges and centers, and all institutions of our state are interested. Our aim, in line with the knowledge of our Minister, is to examine the soil structure, vegetation and animal population in the burned areas, together with the Regional Directorate of Forestry, to ensure their rehabilitation for the future. Our university's responsibility is to protect our national wealth forests, which are of high social and economic value, and to raise awareness. To instill a love of trees. From the youngest to the oldest, we will do our best in terms of academic education. Maybe we don't have a Forestry Faculty, but now we have a forestry school. I wish our school to be beneficial for our Izmir, our region and our country. I would like to thank all the teachers and students who participated.”
