World Forestry Day 2010

Tomorrow (21 March) is the D day.

We all know about the importance of forests. Some of them include:

1. Forest is the home to many living organisms-from micro to macro.
2. Forest floor is like a sponge. This sponge allows rain water to go deep in the soil, replenishing the ground water. We can tap this later.
3. Forest is a carbon sink. The plants trap all those CO2 and stores it in its living parts. We call this C sequestration.
4. The plants in the forest provide us with fresh O2.

So, on World Forestry Day, you can either teach someone the important of forest conservation.

Or else, plant a TREE and open up another "GREEN UMBRELLA" in your neighbourhood.
