早在1925年前，國父孫中山先生很早就發現造林的重要性，一直在積極倡導國家造林運動以改善民生。
As early as 1925, Father of Taiwan Sun Yat-sen discovered the importance of afforestation very early, and has been actively advocating the national afforestation movement to improve people's livelihood.
由於國父生前一直致力於倡導國家造林以改善民生，政府便明訂國父逝世之日（3月12日）為植樹節。每年到這一天，全國都會舉行造林植樹運動，用實際行動來遵循國父的遺志。
Because he has been committed to advocating national afforestation to improve people's livelihood during his lifetime, the government has designated the day of his death (March 12) as the Arbor Day. Every year on this day, Tree-planting activities are held throughout the country, and practical actions are used to follow the will of the father.
時代演進至今，植樹的意義不再只是為了民生，還包括了環境保護的重要性，已經是全球都相當重視並努力的目標。
With the evolution of the times, the significance of planting trees is no longer just for people's livelihood, but also includes the importance of environmental protection, which has been a goal that the world attaches great importance to and strives for.
如今亞洲各地環保意識起頭，為了避免沙漠化持續發生、永續發展，亞洲各個國家也都開始積極努力地在育林和栽植保固水土的木種。
Nowadays, environmental protection awareness in various parts of Asia has begun. In order to avoid the continuous occurrence of desertification, various Asian countries have also begun to actively work hard to cultivate forests and plant wood species that conserve water and soil.
