THE REAL IMPORTANCE OF TREES BY:MIM ABDULLAH

Trees are important to all of us and we need them for a collection of reasons.

But if we cut them down…

Then we won’t be able to have that much air and our world would be full of smoke.

And it will leave extinction to animals because the trees have been homes to them

Trees have been homes to birds.

Trees have been homes to squirrels

In times when deforestation has led to global warming and the greenhouse effect; “Saving Trees” seems to become an issue we have to address. As we may not realize what we’ve been doing to trees not to saves trees, we do not care, but on the other hand some care on what others has been doing to trees and tries to stop them. If we save our trees, then the trees will keep doing their jobs by: protecting us from storms, cleans the air, and gives resources to us, and if we don’t save our trees, then it will leave extinction to animals. Firstly, the trees will slow down the storms by blocking them. In the website: http://www.environmentabout.com/1387/why-we-should-save-trees it states in paragraph 5 “Trees slow storm water runoff flash flooding can be reduced by a forest or by planting trees. Planting and growing wild, can intercept more than 1000 gallons of way when fully grown.” This shows that is plant trees, and then it could block more than 1000 gallons of water. That’s a- lot! Secondly, the trees clean the air and give us oxygen and takes in the carbon dioxide. In the website: http://www.environmentabout.com/1387/why- we-should-save-trees, it states in paragraph 6 “ Trees absorbs carbon dioxide, as animals breaths oxygen and gives out carbon dioxide to control the balance of carbon dioxide, which is harmful for life and cause global warming, trees absorbs carbon dioxide. Trees use carbon dioxide to produce their food and gives out precious oxygen.” This shows that trees take in the carbon to control global warming and produces food with it.

Thirdly, trees give us a collection of resources to us to help us survive. In the website: http://www.conservation.org/learn/climate/forests/pages/overveiw.aspx it states in paragraph 5 “Forests are important to ecosystems in the balance of nature, providing a multitude of resources and services essential to all people. Destruction of habitat and resources forces people to move elsewhere for food, shelter, and jobs, leading to great poverty and social instability.” This signifies if we destroy trees, it leaves people going elsewhere for a resource. Now, we all have known trees have been habitats to animals for a long time. If we cut trees down, then it will leave extinction to animals. In the website: http://www.conservation.org/learn/climate/forests/pages/overveiw.aspx it states in paragraph 4 “Tropical forests are homes to more than half of all the species on earth, and their destructions means the extinction of countless plants and wild life species, many still unknown to science.” This signifies that destroying habitats of homes can leave extinction to animals. In the end, we all have known that trees are homes to many species in our world, protects us from storms, cleans the air, and gives us a collection of resources. But most of all is that we have to start doing something else may be to late or our future children will start doing something worse to the environment.
