In my city greenery is killing by the high rise buildings and nowadays it becoming normal thing for us. Because of this we are missing natural beauties, we are missing trees and day by day weather are changing and rain fall are becoming less. We are facing tremendous heat and humid weather in compare to earlier days. Nobody is paying attention on plantation and if this situation continues, one day we will face more critical condition to live. Do you face same kind of situation in your city?

Nowadays, some cities tried to plant trees and build nature within the heart of the city to minimize pollution, climate change and global warming. I hope other cities will do that too.

These high rise buildings are proofs that a country is developing. It is also the same with us here. Anywhere you look, anywhere you go, you can see high rise buildings. And I think this could not be stopped.

Yeah, its the reality. I am not against the development but my point is we should also think about plantation also.

@dbherald That's right. Owners of these high rise buildings should also a lot some space to be planted with trees. Like an orchard maybe or a park with flowers and trees.

Yes, we have heavy fog and haze nowadays and people are told to stay inside the house not go outside. But how can we stay inside all the time. We have to work....

zoning of these things should be implemented, in our city we have the area for development and the area for watershed program.

It is a shame that too many of those high rise buildings are ruining not only the scenery but the quality of air too.
