I am writing this letter to tell you the importance of plants for all living organisms..

Plants play a very very important role for the survival of animals , humans and all other living organisms!
They are the only organisms which can prepare food by their own.. only plants have the ability to
perform photosynthesis...
It's really important for us to save plants as they also provide us will rain.. shelter, food, wood and etc!
Plants also help in cleaning air. In today's world the air is highly polluted and plants help in cleaning the
air.
Plants also help in water cycle... The water which is excreted from the plant leaf is evaporated and thus,
it helps in water cycle.. ( also known as transpiration)
Plants help in keeping the environment clean and green.. They make the place beautiful and attractive...
See! There are so many uses of plants and we humans must save and plant more trees to have a happy
life :)

There are many ways to conserve plants for the long run like protecting it from destruction, take care
of it and giving it attention.
The first way is to protect it from destruction. I know that the government is usually the one behind the
destruction of plants so I’m not telling you to stop the government, instead you can plant new ones to
make up for some of the plants destroyed. Even if you just plant 1 plant every year, that would be a start
to a change.
The next one is to take care of it. I personally have quite a few plants in my home and I water it and put
it in a place where the sun shines on it. You can do that as well with any plant to maintain its life ans
survival against nature.
The last one is giving it attention. I’ll admit it does sound weird but if you actually try this out you will
notice a change to its state. Even if its not a plant on your property you can still spend some time to
admire and notice it. This will result in learning its state and what it needs so you can help it grow by
telling others.
Plants are very important to the world and its life, by conserving them you’re not only protecting a
plant, you’re changing the world one plant at a time.

In the face of climate change, it's easy to feel overwhelmed and powerless to change our world for the
better. But here at Green People, we’re all for small changes that make a big difference.

If we all start to make positive changes, no matter how small, there’s hope that we can begin to restore
the world to its natural balance.

4 WAYS TO CONSERVE AND PROTECT PLANTS


Plants are the backbone of all life. Without plants; air, food, water, some medicines and, of course, our
natural and organic beauty products simply wouldn’t exist! Some of the key threats that face plant
diversity include:

Habitat loss and degradation


Pollution and disease
Climate change
. GROW YOUR OWN
Investing in an edible garden gives you the opportunity to grow a wide array of interesting plants with
flavours fresher than money can buy. Forgoing supermarkets in favour of home-grown vegetables, herbs
and fruits not only saves you money but also helps protect the planet.
2. USE NATURAL PESTICIDES
While they may protect the plant they’re purposed for, pesticides can contaminate soil, water and other
vegetation, causing harm to birds, fish, beneficial insects and non-target plants. This can have a
devastating impact on pollination, thus throwing the whole ecosystem out of balance.

Plant trees, save nature


Planting trees is one of the most important things you can do to save the environment. It takes about
625 square feet surface area of vegetation to produce the daily oxygen requirement of one person. Even
people living in big, bustling cities can play a vital role in greening their environment. Here are some
simple, cost-effective ways by which you can plant a tree, and do your little bit to green your world .

If you have a big enough garden, plant trees, for they can cool your homes considerably.
Select appropriate plants to suit your garden and the climatic conditions. Your local nursery or
horticultural society can help you.
If your garden is too small for trees, have plants and creepers instead. Every green plant helps to reduce
the carbon dioxide we are letting out into the atmosphere.
Garden plants are better than a lawn for absorbing carbon dioxide. So when you plan your garden, opt
for extra space for plants rather than for a lawn.
If your city or garden lacks water for gardening, plant drought-resistant plants like cacti, flowering
shrubs, etc.
If you live in an apartment, grow a terrace or balcony garden using potted plants.
Window boxes can be used to grow small flowering plants which also add to the beauty of your
apartment. Try and use discarded materials to make your boxes.
Keep indoor plants in the house, they can lessen indoor air pollution.
Compost your leaf waste to avoid use of chemical fertilisers.
Do not present flower bouquets. Instead, give a potted plant and encourage your friends to grow plants.
Start a tree planting programme in your area. Plant on roadsides, in parks, in schools, factories and
home.
If you see trees being cut down on the street, report it immediately to the concerned authorities. Most
environmental problems arise due to public apathy.
Make saving trees a personal commitment.
Conserve paper, conserve trees, save nature
When you buy furniture, find alternatives to wood. You will be saving some of our precious forests.
Saving paper is saving trees.
Use paper carefully, write on both sides of a sheet.
Save envelopes, old letters and junk mail. Use this when you need paper.
Do not use paper towels and tissues in household cleaning activities. Instead, use old towels, sheets and
pillow case
Do not use paper plates and tissues or paper decorations when you hold a party.
Do not collect unnecessary pamphlets and leaflets just because they are free.
Use cotton handkerchiefs rather than paper tissues.
Avoid sending greeting cards. Every year countless trees are cut down for them.
Reuse cartons and gift wrapping paper.
Use recycled paper whenever possible.
Start eco-clubs in schools which will take up projects in the locality.
