The necessity of cooperation between the operational forces of the Red Crescent and an organization for the protection of the environment.
Shina Ansari, head of the organization for the protection of the environment, in a meeting with the head and a group of managers and employees of the Red Crescent Society:
The organization for the protection of the environment has about 7,000 employees, of which nearly 4,000 are active, and they protect more than 19 million dunams, equal to about 12% of the country's territory.

The Environmental Protection Organization, as one of the institutions with the largest membership in international treaties, is a member of about 20 global environmental treaties and uses this ability to monitor the damage caused to the country's environment.
