Trees are the biggest plants on the earth. Plantation of trees should be maintained in a large quantity. They are very much indispensable as they have multifarious benefits. First, they provide us oxygen and absorb carbon dioxide. Second, they slow down the rate of global warming. Third, They conserve environment. Fourth, they reduce temperature. Fifth, they are the place for numerous animals which we need and, so on.
However, plantation is necessary but unfortunately people are cutting down the beneficial trees excessively despite planting. Without trees, even we can not think of our existence.Deforestation is one of the main causes of global warming. The divers impacts of deforestation are flooding, land sliding, climate change and many more.
The annual deforestation rate in Pakistan was the highest rate in the entire world ever. In this regard, The Lahore High Court (LHC) has observed that such tendency will lead to increase in the spread of life-threatening diseases and ordered the Punjab government, Defence Housing authority and various other developments to make a comprehensive policy for tree plantation and penalising those cut down the trees.
According to a research Pakistan's deforestation rate has been estimated between 0.2 and 0.5 percent annum. It has been the highest deforestations rate in the world.
Similarly, it was observed that the natural forest cover had reduced from 3.59 million hectares to 3.32m hectares at an average rate of 27,000 hectares annually.
Thus, as being a citizen, I request every individual to initiate planting trees from today to decrease the rate of global warming in the region.
