Trees are considered as the most valuable gift that we are blessed with. It allows us to breathe, something we can’t think of living without. It regulates the earth’s water cycle hence is responsible for atmospheric balance .It takes in carbon dioxide that not only prevents extensive green house effect leading to global warming but also keeps atmosphere cool. It’s a habitat to various birds and others species that directly interact with food cycle. It keeps the soil tight to prevent erosion. It’s indispensable for our existence here at earth.

      Think if all trees vanish. No oxygen, it will be disastrous. No rain, cyclones will clean up everything, the temperature will increase many folds, the polar caps will melt that will increase sea levels submerging whole world. It will be a havoc or hell.
