Save Trees


Tail Talk
There were trees on our planet much before the animals or we appeared. They formed huge forests which covered the land and filled the atmosphere with life-giving oxygen. And yet, we human beings are thoughtlessly cutting down trees.

Each person in India is responsible for the cutting of 7 trees per year from the year he is born. The poor do it for building houses and carts, and for burning as fuel. The rich for houses, furniture, paper etc. If you multiply your age by 7 and simply plant that many number of trees, you will have replaced what you have used. The best way to do this is to take the seed of every fruit you eat and put it in a pot. When it becomes a sapling, plant it in the ground and look after it. Fruit trees, pipal and neem trees save the lives of thousands of creatures which depend on them for food, shelter and fresh air.
Trees act as dust collectors. Average dust collection ranges from 1.44 to 5.35 grams per sq. metre of leaf surface.
Trees give us Oxygen to breathe. A pipal with a crown spread (the area covered by the top of the tree) of 162 sq. metres releases 1712 kg of oxygen and absorbs 2,252 kg of carbon dioxide per hour. A 500-metre wide green area can reduce sulphur dioxide by 70% and nitrous oxide by 67%
Trees also....
  • Provide us shade
  • Cool the air as moisture evaporates from their leaves
  • Reduce noise pollution
  • Prevent erosion
  • Protect the water table
  • Keep the environment clean
  • Provide shelter to birds and animals
  • Offer a range of medicines for treatment of diseases
  • Finally, make the world a beautiful place to live in
Monsoons are the right time to plant trees. Go ahead and plant as many as you can.

"Someone's sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago."- Warren Buffett

"The best time to plant a tree is twenty years ago. The second best time is now." - Chinese Proverb

Exam Preparation Tips

1. Think how you feel if you get full marks in exam while you are writing exam in the examination hall.
2. Stay calm and don not fear.
3. Eat nutrition food to keep your mind and body healthy.
4. Some persons will study during late nights. It is not good to do like that. Just revise before eating dinner and eat properly, and sleep nicely.
5. Winners say ' Examination is hard but we can do it' whereas losers say 'We can do it but it is hard'. Please don't think like. Those children think and stop practicing and feel so tired.
6. Your parent or your teacher gives you as a demand that you should good marks. (which gives you much pressure) But be cool and do not think about that and study well.

7. While you go to examination hall, your friends will say something (before starting the exam) which makes you fear. So, please do not keep conversation between you and your friends before the starting of examination.
8. Share problems with your friends, so that you may get  many solution which you haven't known.Some won't share their problems as they think that they will loose  their emotions. So please, at least share your problems with your parents.

9. When you wake up at 4:00 a.m, and study for 2 hours, you might feel stressed. So, sit in the balcony and drink a cup of green tea looking at the sunrise. Green tea gives you relaxation  and its a healthy drink too.

10. Breathing exercise is very much needed to make you calm. Breathe in deeply and breathe out slowly.

11. Make some important notes to make your hardest points easier. While going to exams just revise it, you will be able to write well.

12. One more thing for great relaxation is think of your favorite thing just for 5 seconds.
