Punishment for Being Greedy [Save
Tree-Save Life]
In present time,
the numbers of trees are decreasing and human problems are increasing, in this
case trees are being cut day by day, its main reason human needs. I think, it
is being very bad with nature and we should raise our voice against everyday
cutting tree. To save nature, we should save trees.
In below lines, there is an interesting story. Read and
enjoy…..
As soon as the
woodcutter took his axe to cut the tree in the forest, he heard a voice-
“please do not cut me.” The tree
requested the man to leave me alive. The woodcutter said to the tree, “I will
not cut you if you support my family.” The tree thought for a moment and
replied- you may collect my dried branches and pluck old leaves in bulk and
those would be useful for making fuel and wares for serving food. The man
agreed to the tree. He sat on the ground and began to think deeply. The man
asked the tree, “what benefit would you get if I don’t cut you?” the tree was
much pleased to hear the woodcutter. It said, “Very good gentleman! I will let
you know about its benefit.”
We are very for
human beings. We purify air and give oxygen to creatures that are why they
survive. Do you know if we are cut the supply of oxygen will be stopped and you
will not be able to live anymore? The oxygen in the air is constantly being
used up and turned into carbon dioxide from it up into atmosphere, which is
constantly being used up. You see your children play under my cool and
refreshing shade and travelers take rest. We give you fruits to eat and dried
wood to burn. We supply timber to build your houses and furniture and raw
material for shattering. The books or diaries would perhaps tell you that once
those were trees on some hillside.
We also provide
shelter and food to wild animals. Tigers, lions, dears, bears, fox, rabbits,
elephants etc. wander freely in the clusters of trees. They hunt their prey and
live a joyful life. They get natural habitat and food in the forest. Many birds
make their nests in our branches. But sometimes fowlers and hunters visit us to
prey the birds and animals.
We not only do the
above things for animals and human beings but also we supply them invaluable
herbs which cure chronicle diseases. Ayurvedic medical is importance.
People decorate
their houses with us. They keep us in earthen pots. Rose, marigold, rose berry,
magnolia, jasmine, bananas, lily, lotus, chrysanthemum, bottle palm, palm etc.
are some of us. We are beautiful to look at and add the beauty of houses.
Besides above, all
the foods of the world are produced by us directly or indirectly. People, who
are vegetarian, eat vegetables, fruits, milk-products and non-vegetarians eat
meat which is produced by animals; like goat, sheep, that eat us; so indirectly
we are also the producer of meat. To make the food tastier and flavorful, we
supply them many spices; like dry ginger, black-pepper, red and green chilies,
saffron, nutmeg, mace, cardamom, sago, vinegar, aniseed, turmeric, asafetida,
tamarind etc.
Do you know shirts
and pant which are on your body from where do they come? The woodcutter said,
“Yes, they are made of clothes.” But raw material like cotton of which your
clothes are made, is produced by us. Mills spin the cotton into thread, of
which the textile industries manufacture clothes. And the handle of your axe is
also made of my wood. In the meanwhile, it began to rain and the woodcutter
stuck to the stem of the tree to escape from rain drops. The tree said to him,
“Perhaps, you don’t know the rain is also produced by us. We suck water with
our roots from the soil and our leaves evaporate the access amount of water
into the atmosphere which forms clouds and these clouds cause rain. The
treeless areas have less rain in comparison to the dense forest lands. It is
the reason the hills covered with trees have plenty of rains. Mawsynram, is
place in Meghalaya has the largest rainfall in the world. Water is necessary
for the survival of animals and plants. Now, I understand that you will never
cut us.”
The government is
also paying its attention towards the plantation. It started social forestry
and Vana-Mahotsava programs to increase the number of plants and trees.
Do you know? Many types of medicines are just made by plants,
trees and trees are very important in our life. If you save trees then you will
alive. Everybody should plant a tree in his life. Save Tree Save Life
Moral- Trees/Plants
are our life and we should not cut them. All other living things including the
human beings depend on plants to get food. We cannot live on the earth without
plants. So, we should protect and take care of them and plants more and more
trees around us.
