Preface

It is often said that our world resides in a small seed. In the same way a small seed has a whole tree inside it. These trees and plants are our first mothers. Their leaves, flowers, roots, fruits and seeds are a part of our daily diet and provide us nutrition. Without these trees our world is incomplete. They provide us not only food but also provide us with oxygen. They absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen.

They also provide shade to the animals and a home to the birds. Some plants are also used for medicines mostly herbs. Neem is a good example of a medicine. The roots, leaves, seeds and the bark of the Neem tree all are used to make medicines.

Plants and trees control the atmospheric temperature. You must have seen that the places with a lot of trees are mostly pollution free and have a cool temperature. Today trees are being cut to develop new cities and towns. This result in soil erosion, detracting of the oxygen, flood, droughts, pollution and many other problems arise. These are all problems created by the man. Due to this imbalance in nature the glaciers are melting and water level in the seas is rising.

We all know that without trees life is impossible. If no trees are left then our beautiful planet will become dry and lifeless. We should understand the need to plant trees. Our accentors gave us a green environment and we should give the same to our future generations.

We have given a brief detail of these life giving trees in this book. After reading this book and the role the trees play in our life you may understand their importance. We request you to plant more and more trees.

In Mahatma Buddha’s words, ‘The trees are a magical being in this world. They provide shade to all even to those who come with axes to cut them down.’
