There are many
kinds of trees which do not give any edible things but are of great importance.
They are used exclusively as raw materials for different industries, fuel and
for making
furniture, housebuilding, sports-goods etc. Among the trees which give us
fruits, the coconut, the mango, the jack fruit, the palm, the date, the banana,
the blackberry, the lichi, and the batabi trees are notable.
The sal, the mehagani,
the sundari, the gewa, the chapalis, the telsur, the jarul, the gamari, the
garjan etc. are trees which do not give us fruits but are used as raw materials
for different industries and also for making furniture, houses, sports-goods,
wooden implements and apparatus of many kinds.
Trees are very useful
and valuable to us. They give us flowers, fruits and wood. Bulk of human food
comes from trees and plants. The fruits, bark and leaves of a large number of
trees and plants
are valuable as drugs. They are powdered and used as important ingredients in
medicine. Rubber, which is widely used all over the world, is got from a kind
of tree.
Trees supply raw
materials not only for small and cottage industries but also for big
industries like those of paper, plywood, timber, matches, railway slippers,
bridges etc. They also prevent a region from becoming a desert. They cause
rainfall, prevent erosion and maintain ecological balance. Birds are beasts
which are very important and serve us in many ways, take shelter in forests full of
trees. Lastly trees and plants are essential to human life because they
maintain the balance of life- cycle in Nature.
We should protect the existing
trees and plant new ones. Valuable trees should be planted in suitable places
and scientific method of tree plantation should be introduced. It is wrong to
cut trees indiscriminately. It is rather our duty to plant trees in a planned
way and to take care of those that exist. We must not forget that taking care
of trees is a part of taking care of ourselves.
