Why we need to grow plants?
We cannot make our own proteins - we need plants to do that for us. The
same is true of vitamins and partly so for fats and oils. Plants turn Carbon dioxide in the air into
Oxygen. ... Our waste product of this process is Carbon dioxide which we breathe out plants
need for photosynthesis.
“To exist as a nation, to prosper as a state, andto live as people, we must
have trees”
– Theodore Rooseveltand
Reasons to plant a tree:
There are many reasons:
1 Trees fight climate change

2. 2 Trees clean the air and help you breathe
3 Trees prevent soil erosion and rainwater runoff
4 Planting trees is easy
5 You'll save money
6 Trees increase your home's value
7 You'll attract birds (and critters)
8 Trees are good for your mental and physical health
Note:
Trees also help to reduce ozone levels in urban areas. Most importantly, trees
sequester carbon, helping to remove carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases from the air,
which cools the earth. In fact, a mature canopy tree absorbs enough carbon and releases
enough oxygen to sustain two human beings!
Why there is a need to plant more trees In
PAKISTAN:
There is none amongst the Muslims whoplants a tree or sow
seeds, andthena bird, or a personor an animal eats fromit, but is regardedas a
charitable gift for him,” Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
Trees are one of the most valuable and precious gifts of nature. Not only for human
beings but also for all species living on the planet. Trees help to boost wildlife, grow economy,
strengthen the communities and protect our future. Planting a tree is very valuable thing to the
world, but many people don’t realise it.

Medicinal properties of plants: Many trees are known by their medicinal properties
such as Cidar, Apple, Aloe Vera and White Pine trees. Skin cancer is the most common form of
cancer and trees reduce UV-B exposure which minimises the chances of suffering from the
disease. Many diseases are also caused due to noise pollution, which is increasing every day. To
this end, the trees block sounds and reduce almost 40 percent of noise related pollution.
However, the unfortunate thing is that people are cutting down trees in Pakistan
just to build shopping malls, buildings and plazas for expansion of business. The residential

and deforestation, Earth is falling victimto global warming day by day, while deforestation is
causing major flooding. Rain is not possible without trees – if there is no tree, it means no rain,
and if there is no rain then we can’t grow crops.
“Trees on, global warming gone”Not only Government and other stakeholders, but every
individual must take this issue seriously and should take steps to maintain greenery. Seminars
should be conducted to create awareness among masses, who are not aware of the importance
of planting. Many NGO’s are working to save the environment so join your hands with them too
and also ask your friends and family to do the same.
The Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) said:
“Ifthe Final Hour comes while youhave a palm-cuttinginyour hands and it is possible toplant
it before the Hour comes,you should plant it.”
Prime Minister Imran Khan officially launched “Ten Billion Tree
