There has been a rapid rise in atmospheric temperature, the water level has gone down, the air pollution has increased, the glaciers are melting because of release of carbon dioxide in heavy quantities all over the glob both due to industrialisation and increase of vehicles on the road side besides due to burning of coal in factories and thermal plants. The natural balance of biodiversity has been lost in ocean, air and water and many species of birds and animals have gone extinct.The only way to save this planet is to increase the forest area on Earth which is dwindling fast by greedy human activity who is quite unmindful of its impending extinction of its race from the planet. So it is the duty of all of us to save this planet by planting at least one tree every year’ has said Dr.Bansal.
