Plants Are Valuable Living Organisms on Earth

Plants sustains life on Earth by producing oxygen which is essential for all living creatures. Plants have a large spectrum of operations in the natural chain. They keep the soil against erosion, prevent flooding, makes soil fertile, retains moisture in the soil, affects the groundwater, collecting dust in the air, has an impact on precipitation, and much more. Forests once covered nearly two-thirds of the land, and today the figure is reduced to half.



Forests are crucial for nature and its cycles. Global warming caused by pollution of the environment and the combustion of fossil fuels has become a big problem on the planet Earth. Plant is still the only organism which can reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and increase the level of oxygen, and oxygen is essential for the survival of all living organisms on the Earth including human beings. Therefore, it is very important to preserve existing forests and plant new ones. Various projects teaching people about the importance of conserving forests and encourage them for planting trees. Anyone who even plantsa single tree, contributes to the protection of the planet Earth.

The benefits of forests and trees are multiple. They provide the oxygen necessary for life, collect dust and absorb carbon dioxide which are very harmful to the environment and nurture and enhance the land. They also make the water drinkable and beneficial to human health, preserve soil from drying out, protect against flooding and altogether they reduce the damaging effects of global warming.One tree produces up to 250 cubic feet of oxygen per year, neutralizes damaging gas emissions and the affects the noise reduction.

The food is of utmost importance for the functioning of the individual, for their health and lifein whole. If the food we eat is contaminated and low quality, then the body is exposed to the risk of disease and early aging. Although the food is one of the main human needs, people have forgotten what means quality eating. People need to eat as many fruits and vegetables to get natural energy and vitamins. Likewise, the healing power of plants is well known to the entire world, but few people apply and use them.

Researches on the environmental situation indicate that the polluted air is one of the major environmental concerns in all larger cities. In the cities, there is not enough green space and forest coverage is low. Industrial plants and commercial vehicles are reality. A bicycle, even though might be healthier option, is not an alternative means of transportation.

All these effect resulting in frequent air pollution, which are most evident during the summer and winter months, in the form of respiratory illnesses. Therefore, a focus on creating a greener environment is crucial in the prevention of excessive air pollution.
