  NOW EACH FORTNIGHT YOU SLEEP, YOU ARE ONE STEP CLOSER TO BECOMING EXINCT.                How many of us are aware that the trees, just like us, have the capability to go into stress? Not many, right? But it is true, that trees are in so many ways like us. If we prick them,they bleed. If we tickle them,they laugh. If we poison them,they die. And if we love them, they bloom and shine!  So I will be dedicating my today's blog to the problems faced by trees and how we can ensure that they grow to be healthy. LET'S START!! 🌳    T REE POISONING? When we humans ingest contaminated food,we are very likely to get food poisoning. Likewise when the polluted or contaminated air and water is taken in by the trees, they too get poisoned.  Because of lowering water table levels, mineral deficiencies, they lose the immunity to fight the poison spreading through them. They have no good stuff coming up through the roots, as the falling rain that feeds them has also picked up pollutants on its

  ☆  THE FORESTS ON FIRE! The Amazon rainforest stretches throughout an area of  670   million  hectares . It  has been the world's largest carbon dioxide sink. This wonderful rainforest is also the abode of innumerable species of animals which are the largest collection of living plants and animal species in the world. 💭 FACT CORNER ➜The region is home to about 2.5 million insect species, tens of thousands of plants, and some 2,000 birds and mammals. Even after knowing all this, why do we still harm it? What is wrong with us? More precisely, "What was wrong with us while we were continuously deforesting the jungle for our own selfish purposes, and which then led to be one of the main causes of a fierce wildfires around the world?" Hear this out: The total fires that lasted from January to October consumed a total of  906 hectares  of the land of the Amazon forest. Do you know how much that is? It is too freaking much!  •••••••••••• All the causes of the melting of so ma

" Each year you sleep,  you are one step closer to becoming extinct."   Isn't this true? I personally think that it is the closest one can get to the truth. The Earth, approximately 4.5 billion years old, has since forever provided us with everything. Infact, what I believe is that, the only reason we are alive today is because our Mother Earth has been so compassionate to provide us with oxygen to inhale, water to drink, trees for food, theirs shade for comfort, the sun for heat and light.  I have not known a single moment, from the olden times, when there wasn't a sustainability maintained between the ecosystem and human race. The forests were lush and green and the Earth was alive with the chirping of the birds, the roars of the lions, the sights of our long gone dinosaurs, the gushing of the fresh rivers, the sight of vast glaciers and a happy and content human population. There was a time when endless jungles covered the land as the waves of a wind ruffled sea co
