Trees, The best friend of human

The best friend on earth of man is the TREE. And rightly so, all other living thing provides as many priceless services to mankind. Trees provide us with life-saving medicines, for instance genuine from the cinchona tree and salicylic acid from the while willow. Food and medicines are priceless gifts that trees and forests generously give us. But the services are far more significant.

Trees improve the quality of air we breathe by absorbing dust and other air pollutants such as ozone, carbon monoxide and sulphur dioxide from the atmosphere. They control noise pollution by blocking noise from the urban environment. In places where webs of tree roots bind and a canopy of leaves breaks down pours of rain, into gentle showers, such as a forest, by protecting watersheds which feed our rivers and fresh water - the water on which all life forms depend.

Trees provide us shade during summer especially on roads and shelter of birds, bees butterflies and many insects and the animals. Home To upto 90% of known terrestrial species, forests are the most important repositories of terrestrial biological.

Like human trees too grow, make their food, exchange gasses from the atmosphere and require water. And like us, they also need care to live and flourish. In return of the kindness they show to us and the invaluable services they provide us, let us care for them......let us help them live.
