Trees are one of the most valuable gifts of nature. They provide us with oxygen, fruits, wood, medicines and shade. They also help in maintaining the balance of nature. Trees absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and release oxygen. Their roots hold the soil together and prevent soil erosion. Birds and many other animals depend on trees for food and shelter.
Unfortunately, forests are being destroyed rapidly because of increasing population, construction and industrial activities. Cutting trees without planting new ones can cause serious environmental problems. It may lead to soil erosion, shortage of rainfall and an increase in temperature.
