Green Israel: Helping Protect Israel's Environment

Have you ever ridden your bike on the Trans-Israel Bike Trail or the Kinneret Circumference Trail? Have you ever been to the nature reserve in Nes Tsiona? All of these are the result of Green Israel™ actions by the Green Zionist Alliance. Through appointing leading Israeli environmentalists, such as Dr. Alon Tal, as GZA representatives to the board of directors of Keren Kayemet L'Yisrael / Jewish National Fund in Israel (KKL-JNF), we have had a direct impact on Israel’s environment, including making sustainable afforestation the top KKL-JNF priority. Every day we are fighting for Israel's environment, and a greener Israel.
