Planting trees is essential to saving our forests and preserving an equilibrium in the environment. Trees produce oxygen, help reduce air pollution, act as natural sound absorbers, and provide habitats for wildlife. If we don't take steps now to save and rebuild our forests, species that rely on these forests will suffer—not just plants but birds and animals too will have nowhere left to call home. Re-planting lost ecosystems with new trees is key to prevent not only a disruption of nature's balance but also global warming further down the line.
