Students in schools and colleges should be inspired and motivated to plant and protect trees. It should be made obligatory that at least one tree is planted by each and every person in the country.The influence and impact of trees on all living beings including man is very soothing and pleasant. They keep us happy, healthy and cheerful. They provide us with life-giving oxygen and work as valuable barrier to noise-pollution. It is in the forests that our Vedas, Upanishads were created and composed. We should protect and conserve the trees, the most beautiful gift of God and nature. Plantation and protection of tree is a great creative activity. It is also participation in divinity. There cannot be a greater sin that felling a tree.
