This document discusses the importance of planting trees. It notes that trees are being cut down around the world for various human needs like construction and manufacturing. This is leading to urbanization and increased greenhouse gas emissions from activities like burning fossil fuels. The rising global temperatures and disruption of weather patterns that result can contribute to problems like droughts and floods. However, trees can help address these issues by reducing carbon dioxide levels, providing habitat, releasing oxygen, helping with rains and erosion control, and having aesthetic value. The document encourages planting more trees to protect the environment.
Why trees are important and VITAL to our own survival, why we should take care of the environment and Green Young Minds to help save our planet and our future!

Why should we act against global warming?
* To prevent climate whiplash
* To stop melting of glaciers and icebergs
* To reduce soil erosion
* To reduce the carbon footprint

IMPORTANCE OF PLANTATION
MONTHLY CONTRACTOR MEETING
Environment Awareness Session

2. Current Scenario of the Trees
• Trees are being cut for
the various reasons all
over the world e.g.
increasing population,
urbanization, timber
requirements for various
construction purposes,
paper manufacturing and
other human needs
3. Effects of Urbanization
• Burning fossil fuels in cars and power
stations produces carbon dioxide,
sulphur dioxide and other greenhouse
gases
• Carbon dioxide traps heat in the
atmosphere and causes the
temperature of the earth to rise.
• This leads to disruption of the
weather patterns e.g. drought,
floods
5. • Reduction in Global Warming by using CO2
• Provide Habitat for birds and species
• Provide Rains
• Provide Shade
• Release Oxygen that we breathe
Trees Positively Contribute to:
6. Trees Positively Contribute to:
• Stop Erosion and can also remediate
the contaminated soil by the process
of phytoremediation
• Have aesthetic value
