Planting for the Planet: Shreel Foundation’s Tree Plantation Drive in Deoghar

Why Tree Plantation is Important?
Planting trees offers numerous benefits to the environment, society, and economy:

• Air Quality Improvement: Trees absorb harmful pollutants and release oxygen, improving the air we breathe.

• Climate Regulation: Trees help reduce the greenhouse effect by absorbing carbon dioxide, thus combating global warming.

• Soil Conservation: Tree roots prevent soil erosion and maintain soil fertility, essential for agriculture and local ecosystems.

• Water Conservation: Trees improve groundwater recharge and reduce water runoff, helping to maintain the water cycle.

• Biodiversity Support: Trees provide habitat and food for birds, insects, and other wildlife, promoting ecological diversity.

• Temperature Moderation: Shade from trees reduces urban heat, creating cooler and more comfortable living spaces.

• Health & Wellbeing: Green spaces contribute to physical and mental health by reducing stress and promoting outdoor activity.
