It should be noted that the school celebrated its 30th anniversary on May 18, and so the greening of its grounds happened to be not only yet another annual volunteering event, but also a great opportunity for SIBUR’s employees to share in the celebration of an important occasion.

SIBUR's Green Formula reforestation and climate action program seeks to reduce climate impact and help the company meet its sustainable development goals while contributing to achieving the nation's reforestation targets. The plan is to get at least 5 million trees planted in the regions where the company has a presence by 2025. In addition to the program’s target of planting that many trees, its objectives also include support for scientific research and development, getting employees and residents of the regions where the company has a presence engaged as volunteers, and fostering an environmental culture among the members of local communities. The program also features environmental classes for teachers dealing with the organization of research activities that are to be carried out by students, as well as contests of students’ projects dealing with researching, protecting, and restoring forests organized annually for the benefit of school forestries.
