Tree Planting Project

Tree plantation is important for providing oxygen, supporting wildlife, reducing temperatures, and absorbing carbon dioxide. Several NGOs in India organize tree plantation programs to increase awareness and involve students. These programs educate students on planting and caring for saplings as well as the environmental benefits of trees. The NCC can support tree plantation by planting trees in their local areas, assisting other NGOs, raising awareness on college campuses, and incorporating tree planting activities in schools and colleges.

❖ Importance :
Since the beginning, trees have furnished us with two of life’s essentials, food and
oxygen. As we evolved, they provided additional necessities such as shelter, medicine,
and tools.
• Trees greatly contribute to their environment by providing oxygen.
• supporting wildlife
• They also reduce wind speeds and cool the air as they lose moisture and
reflect heat upwards from their leaves.
• The shade of trees also provides a useful barrier to harmful ultra-violet
radiation from the sun.
• conserving water
• preserving soil
• maintain low levels of carbon dioxide, and thereby reducing the greenhouse
effect in the atmosphere.
• climate amelioration.
Not only trees but shrubs and turf also have their own role to play on this process.
