"Think green, Do green and Be green?. The word green is itself meaningful which indicates ?The Nature?. Plants are the important and beautiful creation of nature. We all, human beings have a responsibility of maintaining healthy environment. Although, the natural forests are known to be the best in protection the environment and biodiversity, forest plantation too play a vital role in both protection and production. Plants contribute by conserving soil and water resources which make a positive impact to agricultural productivity and hydro power production.


A forest is not simply an accumulation of trees, but is itself a society, a community of trees that mutually influence each other, thus giving rise to a whole series of new phenomena. Combination of trees plays the significant role in climate change which is the main issue of this world. Tree decreases the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere by absorbing it from the air and converting it into clean oxygen, which they release, and they store. Because of this natural process, healthy forests are our most efficient, inexpensive, and natural system to combat climate change.

    Plantation is the initiative work for the making green nature but also the most important is its preservation. so also involvement of local people is utmost necessary for its conservation as in the plantation. And its really nice to hear about the women empowerment and their involvement in the environmental activities.

    Thanks Clean up Nepal, Tunza Eco-generation and all others for such programs and thanks kalpana for sharing such a wonderful event.
