Rationale
- In recent years, our planet has witnessed a surge in environmental phenomena and natural calamities that serve as stark

reminders of the precarious state of our environment. From devastating wildfires and hurricanes to unprecedented heatwaves

and rising sea levels, the signs of climate change and environmental degradation are impossible to ignore. The Wrath of

Wildfires, one of the most alarming environmental phenomena in recent times has been the increasing frequency and intensity

of wildfires. Trees play a critical role in mitigating wildfires. Their canopies provide shade, reducing the ground temperature

and the risk of ignition. Furthermore, trees act as windbreaks, helping to slow down the spread of fires. Planting trees

strategically in vulnerable areas can help minimize the damage caused by wildfires and protect human communities. Prolonged

Droughts and Desertification, climate change has disrupted precipitation patterns, leading to water scarcity and the

desertification of arable land. This, in turn, has devastating consequences for agriculture, food security, and human livelihoods.

Trees help to retain soil moisture, reduce erosion, and improve soil fertility. By planting trees in degraded and arid regions, we

can contribute to the restoration of ecosystems, enhance water retention, and mitigate the effects of droughts. Extreme

Heatwaves and Urban Cooling, heatwaves have become more frequent and severe, posing serious health risks to urban

populations. Strategically planting trees in urban areas can provide much-needed shade, reduce surface temperatures, and

improve air quality. The cooling effect of trees not only enhances the comfort of city dwellers but also contributes to reducing

energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions associated with air conditioning.

- The importance of tree growing is, it provides oxygen to us humans. It also gives fresh air, climate enhancement and

supports wildlife. Aside from its fresh air, it also gives us food to eat, and shade from sunlight and rainfall.

- The importance of trees to the environment is that they help to limit carbon in the atmosphere. It reduces air pollution and

minimizes erosion. It helps us prevent floods.

- My role as steward of God's creation is to help our environment preserved and protect all his creation that he has given to

us. And I will manage the environment not just for my own benefit but also, for God's glory.

Planting has been an immensely rewarding and educational experience in my life. As I delve into the world of
gardening, I find myself captivated by the intricate process of nurturing life from the tiniest of seeds. This essay is a
reflection on my personal planting journey, highlighting the steps I have taken to cultivate various plants, the lessons I
have learned along the way, and the profound sense of fulfillment that comes from watching life flourish under my
care. One of the fundamental aspects of my planting journey was choosing the right plants for my garden. This decision
was guided by various factors, including my local climate, available space, and personal preferences. I carefully
researched each plant's requirements, such as sunlight, soil type, and water needs, to ensure their successful growth.
One of the fundamental aspects of my planting journey was choosing the right plants for my garden. My planting
journey has taught me the value of patience. Unlike instant gratification, gardening requires a long-term commitment. It
takes time for seeds to germinate, plants to mature, and eventually produce blooms or fruits. Patience has become a
virtue I cherish as I wait for my garden to flourish.

I hereby certify that all the above information are true and correct and that I shall monitor the growth of the said trees to
ensure its development into a grown up tree in order to increase the number of trees in our community.
