Tree Plantation

Trees are the most important element of nature. Men depend much on trees. Trees provide us with oxygen, food, furniture, etc and take in carbondioxide which is harmful to human beings and all animals. So to say, our life on earth largely depends upon trees. But it is a matter of great regret that we are cutting down trees very unwisely for quick profit. It is really a matter of great concern.

First, it is important to know what trees do for us. Trees are useful to us in various ways. Man needs oxygen. In every breath we take oxygen in and leave carbon dioxide out. Trees leave oxygen out and take carbon dioxide in. Thus they provide us with the most necessary thing we need on earth. Trees also give us food and shelter. We cannot live without the help of trees.

But at present people are cutting down trees at a large scale. There are many reasons of cutting down trees. Man is cutting them down mainly for firewood.and furniture. Every day our population is increasing. So, more firewood and furniture are needed for the additional people.

Tropical rain forests are also being cleared at a high rate. It takes thousands of years to grow a tropical rain forest.

But at present they are being cleared at the rate of fourteen square miles per hour.

The effect of deforestation is very harmful and dangerous. For this, 'Greenhouse Effect' has occurred and the temperature of the world is increasing day by day.

Heat waves, have grasped many countries. Ice is melting in the South and the North Poles. The level of water in the sea is increasing. This may lead to worldwide flood. Measures should immediately be taken to prevent deforestation. We should plant five trees if we cut down one. We should also try our best to stop cutting down trees and save the environment. Otherwise, our future will be very difficult and uninhabitable.
