We all know how trees help Earth in purifying the air and absorbing the carbon from the atmosphere. Trees are vital. As the most crucial component of our ecosystem, they give us oxygen, store carbon, stabilise the soil,conserve water,  ameliorate the climate and give life to the world's wildlife. They also provide us with the materials for tools and shelter.

We all must plant trees on every possible occasion. Why not celebrate birthdays by planting birthday tree and see your birthday tree growing as you grow. Imagine if each of us plant a tree on our birthday , world will have at least 7.8 bln trees soon. I always plant trees on my birthdays and my parents wedding anniversary. This year in April on my 17th birthday, I planted 17x2=34 saplings to leave my mark( but not the footprint) on my birthday and to make my birthday meaningful . 

As usual I felt really elated while planting on my birthday.

I am supporting SDG(Sustainable Development Goa)l 13 "Climate Action" by planting trees myself and encouraging others to do so. How about you ?

Let's think of environment and plant trees ourselves and encourage others too to do so. The state of environment we are in today-it's only the trees that can help us come out of this situation. Trees are the lifelines and lungs of Earth.
