Instead of increasing the number of trees, human beings started destroying them haphazardly-Some water saving remedies

World Forest Day is celebrated on March 21 every year.  Celebrating this day is about cultivating trees, protecting forests, enriching the environment.


Due to increasing urbanization we see that the number of trees is decreasing day by day.  Forests are being cut down, causing damage not only to humans but also to wildlife.  What if we just think that someone will snatch our house from us?

Trees and forests play a vital role in maintaining the environment.  Trees absorb carbon dioxide.  It is necessary to plant more and more trees as soon as the tree planting is done.


In 50 years, a tree produces a total of 17.50 lakhs of oxygen, 35 lakhs of pollution control, 8 lakhs of carbon dioxide absorption, 21 lakhs of water recycling, 3% reduction in temperature.  A lifetime of pollution by an adult can absorb up to 300 trees.

#World Water Day - Save Water 

  1. Turn off the water when brushing your teeth. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), this simple act may save more than 200 gallons of water in a single month.
  2.  Use less water when doing laundry. Your washing machine can swallow gallons of water, so make sure you use it wisely. Wait until you have enough clothing for a full load of laundry before starting the washer. If you need to wash a small load separately, adjust the water level on your machine accordingly.
  3. Take a shower instead of a bath, and take shorter showers. As reported by the EPA, if you shower for five minutes or less you will use about 10 to 15 gallons of water. Compare that number with baths, which use up to 70 gallons of water. If you do take a bath, try reusing some of the water in your garden.
  4. Fill a bottle with water and sand and put it in the toilet tank. This displaces the water and makes the toilet use less water with each flush.


‘Save Water Save Life’ – this quote rings true as all life stems from the water. By following these simple tips to conserve water, you can avoid daily wastage of water. And, this, in turn, can help us make a water-sufficient country where everyone has access to safe drinking water all year around.

You have to train your mind to be stronger than your emotions....

Emotions are tied to everything we do. They are the major source of motivation, and a big factor in our ability to think clearly...
