Plant Your Tree

• Trees absorb carbon dioxide, the gas produced from the breathing of animals and people and by cars and plants that use oil and coal for energy.

• Because of the neormous number of cars and plants, there is too much carbon dioxide in the air. Billions of trees that have to absorb that discharged carbon dioxide have been cut down. Thus, there are not enough trees to absorb carbon dioxide.

• Trees make summer months much more pleasant and cooler.

• Houses with a lot of trees use less energy for air-conditioning, thus save up enery and pollute less.

• Planting trees is the best way to save the Earth. The tree will reduce the quantity of carbon dioxide in the air, make the environment beautiful, create more shades and attract wild life.

  What You Can Do!

• If you do not know which tree to plant, visit a botanic garden or a park where you will see various types of plants.

• The people who work in those kind of places usually have knowledge about the trees, so you can ask them.

• Select a place with sufficient light and fertile soil to plant your tree. If the drainage is big, the soil will be dry, and if the drainage is little, the soil will be wet and the root might rot.

• If you need more information on planting trees, talk to your parents, neighbours or other expert persons on biology.
