Tree Plantation/ Importance of Trees in Our Life Or, Why More Trees Should Be Planted

Tree plantation is the process in which tree seedlings are transplanted generally for forestry. Trees are our best friend. We depend much on trees. Trees provide us with oxygen which is very essential for our existence. 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 some quick profit. It is really a matter of great concern.

First, it is important to know what trees do for us. Man needs oxygen. In every breath we inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. 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, clothes, shelter, Medicine and shades. 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 down them mainly for firewood and furniture. Everyday 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. Unfortunately, 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 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.
