& rees are indeed useful to us. Cuman and animals breathe

o"ygen and breathe out carbon dio"ide. n the other hand, trees

 breathe in carbon dio"ide and breathe out o"ygen. his process helps

to balance the amount of carbon dio"ide and o"ygen in the air.

Aactories throughout the world caused more problem. 6hen they

 pollute the air with too much carbon dio"ide, the trees clean it up and

return the o"ygen to us. Cowever, people start cutting trees to make

way for agriculture and development. Cence, industries kept on

increasing. his meant that we were producing more carbon dio"ide

now because the trees which could neutrali8e the air, were getting

fewer and fewer.

10

cientists warned us about the danger of cutting down trees

unnecessarily but few listened. In time, governments reali8ed that they

had to act responsibly and started to understand the importance of 

trees. !veryone feared the time when there would not be enough trees

to maintain the delicate balance in the air.

an important link in the process of evaporation. rees actually help to

 balance the water vapour in the air. his important ability could have

created awareness of how important trees are to us. 6hen there was

less rain in many parts of the world, many people began to reali8e that

if they wanted rain, they had to leave the trees alone. - simple solution

is not to destroy the trees.
