SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS

Plant a Tree and Help Protect The Environment
In general our lives depend on plants all around us. Based on data more than 80% plants in the world are sources for providing food, save energy, as a place to live and protecting living things.
Do you know how tree help us to save energy? Planting trees can also help cool your home in the summer. The Arbor Day Foundation states that the overall effect of the shade created by planting a healthy tree is equivalent to 10 room-size air conditioners running 20 hours a day!
In the winter, trees can act as windbreaks for your home and will help you save on heating costs. The Journal of Horticulture claims that saving on heating costs can reach as much as 25 percent!
Trees shade buildings, streets, and homes. If enough trees are planted in cities, the overall microclimate improves and total energy use for heating and cooling is reduced.
Now up to 15% of land is currently under protection. Biodiversity is still at risk. Land with have big plant damage caused by human activities like deforestation, desertification, and climate change. We can prevent it all by use of source in an equitable way or by financial investment support of biodiversity. By protecting plant, we will also be able to strengthen natural resource management and increase land productivity.
Our project for this topic is donating, caring for and raising plants with their own hands. we are contributing to safeguarding our environment by planting trees, this activity will be carried out by all communities without the exception of school students participating in the school environment. we hope by this project, plant populations will increase, increase self-awareness of the importance of plants for the environment, and we are able to keep our earth alive.
