Deal with deforestation

Recently, we witnessed how Sundarban protected us from the super cyclone Amphan. In the process, a large number of trees were damaged. We must compensate for such a big loss and build a coastal green belt. Deforestation and the lack of tall trees have also increased the number of deaths from thunderbolts. Palm trees not only serve as natural lightning conductors to save lives but also protect coastal areas from storms and cyclones. Planting trees will address issues like soil erosion and climate change. With the help of government and NGOs, we should start planting trees wherever possible. But care must be taken to maintain safety measures during the pandemic.
