Forest : Blessings for humankind, animals and birds.
Forests are blessings for humankind as well as animals and birds. Earth is the only planet to inhabit such a diverse variety of the same all across the globe. They prove beneficial to the human race for umpteen reasons being medicines, food, shelter, industries, furniture, certain utensils, papers, wax and several beauty products.
However, excessive dependence on forests and rapid deforestation has left the trees only in scanty. Scorching heat, rising temperatures, drying up of rivers and streams, impure air, increase in carbon dioxide are the causes of deforestation and human recklessness.
Recent burning of some of the greatest forests such as Amazon jungles has added to our plight. Australian bushfires are yet another example that killed mammoths of kangaroos and pandas among other animals. If the practice of deforestation persists, soon we will be devoid of plants and eventually life on earth. The day of the perdition of the earth is nearing. We must count on plants, and protect them to sustain life on earth for good.
Greta Thunberg, the famous and one of the youngest social activists did raise her concern over environmental degradation yet her voice seemed to fall on deaf ears. Nobody paid heed to the young lady, but the condition or our environment today invites an urgent need to draw our attention towards these plants, animals and forests.
Monitoring deforestation by commercial industrialists for raw materials, reforestation, monitoring use of forested areas by farmers for agriculture and promoting the importance of plants, forests and trees in schools, universities and colleges can help save trees and forests.
