Save the environment


In summer we realised that the weather was whimsically changing. Even if we depict the graph of the statistics of rain, we find temperature is getting higher than previous summer's and humidity is also going down. I think this happens because of the scarcity of trees. As we know, a country needs 25% of its total area covered with forests. But we are nowhere near that mark.

There are many causes for the shortage-- the main cause is that people of the country are unaware of the dangers associated with shortage of greenery.
