Importance of Trees : Trees are the basis of sustaining life on earth.

Trees are one of the most important natural resources on earth. It is also a very important part of the ecosystem as many animals solely depend on trees for food and shelter. Trees also provide us with resources, some of which are very important for our survival. Historically, trees provided humans with firewood, which was crucial for cooking and warmth. Some of our earliest ancestors lived in forests where temperatures usually plummeted below freezing. In these situations, sticks, twigs and branches from trees meant the difference between life and death.

Even today, many places across India and other parts of the world do not have access to gas or electricity. Hence, these people still use firewood for cooking and other purposes.

In today’s scenario, trees are being cut down to make way for human occupation. Large swaths of forests are being cleared every day, and animals are forced to give up their natural habitat as a result. However, this has a drastic repercussions on the health of the environment. Human activities have introduced large amounts of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, and if the levels are unchecked for a long time, it can cause drastic repercussions to the environment.

Thankfully, trees can absorb the carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store it within themselves. This process is called carbon sequestration and is vital for a cleaner environment. However, with the number of trees being cut down, this phenomenon may not be as effective. Hence, it is important that we do not cut down trees and promote afforestation.
