This situation underscores the relevance of Sustainable Development Goal 15 (SDG 15), which emphasizes sustainable forest management, restoration of degraded lands, and conservation of biodiversity. Recognizing these challenges, Faculty of Science and Arts, Burapha University, Chanthaburi Campus, has prioritized initiatives that contribute to the preservation and rehabilitation of local environments. To address these concerns, the faculty launched the volunteer project titled \u201cUnited Hearts Under One Tree,\u201d aiming to restore degraded areas into healthy green spaces. This initiative seeks not only to improve the environment but also to instill a sense of responsibility and awareness of natural resource conservation among students, staff, and community members. Through active participation in tree-planting activities, participants gain practical knowledge of ecosystems, forest restoration, and the importance of using natural resources sustainably and responsibly. Beyond increasing green areas, this project helps mitigate climate change by capturing carbon, prevents soil erosion, and maintains the moisture of natural water sources. It also aligns with the faculty\u2019s mission to integrate teaching, research, and community engagement to achieve genuine sustainable development. Ultimately, this initiative reinforces the university\u2019s role as a leader in promoting sustainable practices and advancing the Sustainable Development Goals at both local and national levels.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-44ae955 e-flex e-con-boxed wpr-particle-no wpr-jarallax-no wpr-parallax-no wpr-sticky-section-no e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"44ae955\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-core-v316-plus=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-25d5146 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"25d5146\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.20.0 - 11-03-2024 *\/\n.elementor-widget-image{text-align:center}.elementor-widget-image a{display:inline-block}.elementor-widget-image a img[src$=\".svg\"]{width:48px}.elementor-widget-image img{vertical-align:middle;display:inline-block}<\/style>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1166\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/sdgs.buu.ac.th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/SciArt2-Panupon-Samaimongkol.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-227\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sdgs.buu.ac.th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/SciArt2-Panupon-Samaimongkol.jpg 1166w, https:\/\/sdgs.buu.ac.th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/SciArt2-Panupon-Samaimongkol-300x154.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sdgs.buu.ac.th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/SciArt2-Panupon-Samaimongkol-1024x527.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sdgs.buu.ac.th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/SciArt2-Panupon-Samaimongkol-768x395.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1166px) 100vw, 1166px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f77a236 e-flex e-con-boxed wpr-particle-no wpr-jarallax-no wpr-parallax-no wpr-sticky-section-no e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"f77a236\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-core-v316-plus=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f4d2faa elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f4d2faa\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Objectives:<\/strong><\/p><p>1.
