We enjoy the beauty of trees,but most of us take them for granted.we shouldn't.these terrific plants are essential to the environment and benefit our world in amazing ways.did you know...trees keep the air fresh by removing harmful carbon dioxide and producing oxygen.each year,one tree produces nearly 260 pounds of oxygen.a family of four can breathe the oxygen produced by just two trees for a whole year!

Very good information. Yes, our house is surrounded by trees, some bamboos, and it's cool and we breathe fresh air. In many places where the trees were cut, pollution is great and the temperature becomes hot. There should really be replenishment for the trees that were cut and there should be tree planting program to contribute to the solution of environmental pollution which is confronting the whole world.

Yes I agree with you that trees are the basic source of oxygen in this world.Thus, we must protect and take good care of them because they are the main source of oxygen for free.We must love our mother nature at all cost.

Yeah. Trees were cut down to give way to developement... and later we will lost more of them. I am lucky because my parents' house were surrounded by trees and i still can enjoy the green and beautiful scene every morning when i open my window..so fresh.
