Eco-Friendly Activity-Tree Plantation at School.

Plantation of Trees-An Event at School.

    Continuing with its tradition of preserving environment and having eco-friendly activities, the students conducted tree plantation programme in theS.E.International  high school campus. The teachers, students and our principle undertook a plantation drive.
Trees are important, necessary and valuable to our very existence. It's not too hard to believe that without trees we humans would not exist on this beautiful planet. Unfortunately, our need for trees is more than ever. While science and technology has provided us with many comforts, the consequent urbanization and industrialization also has had some undesired side-effects; Global Warming being one of those. The club has identified this problem and has associated itself with this case. Thereby, the club conducts a plantation drive each year.
All in all, this event served the dual purpose of education and entertainment for the students besides also contributing to the welfare of nature.
 As the Principal, Mrs. Jaya Kunder Quoted:- "Every school must ensure that the trees are taken care off, have enough water for a minimum of four years. Care must be taken to ensure that at least 80 to 90% of the trees remain alive,"
Director of School Mr. Mahesh Desai, gave tribute to an Event with his Quotes:- "There is hardly any awareness on the tree plantation drives at the grass root level and we need more of such initiatives to spread it across various strata of the society. Until now, environment awareness was only in the textbooks. This implementation will ensure that the students actually learn about it,"


Benefits of Tree Plantation:-
Trees create an ecosystem to provide habitat and food for birds and other animals.Trees absorb carbon dioxide and potentially harmful gasses, such as sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, from the air and release oxygen. One large tree can supply a day's supply of oxygen for four people.

Trees heal

Studies have shown that patients with views of trees out their windows heal faster and with less complications. Children with ADHD show fewer symptoms when they have access to nature. Exposure to trees and nature aids concentration by reducing mental fatigue.

Trees help prevent soil erosion

On hillsides or stream slopes, trees slow runoff and hold soil in place.

Trees shield children from ultra-violet rays

Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States. Trees reduce UV-B exposure by about 50 percent, thus providing protection to children on school campuses and playgrounds - where children spend hours outdoors.

Trees provide food

An apple tree can yield up to 15-20 bushels of fruit per year and can be planted on the tiniest urban lot. Aside from fruit for humans, trees provide food for birds and wildlife.

Exams,schooling,tuition classes and livelihood are parents' concerns

In IIT, only 1% gets admission. But what happens to 99% ? SUNDER PICHAI- IIT graduate - GOOGLE CEO In fact children have plenty of energy and are very keen to learn new things. They have hundreds of questions to ask. With right environment, good emotional support and freedom to explore and develop, giving little training at the right stage will make them perform well in exam and real life. Narayan Murthy- IIT Graduate- Founder of INFOSYS However trends in society seem to be going in the opposite direction, where questions in the text books are the only important questions and child's question becomes irrelevant. Success is defined in a narrow manner and whole joy of living is squeezed out.
