CONSERVATION OF PLANTS AND ANIMALS

Plants and animals are the most important parts of the world. If they are not there, we are not there, and the world is nothing. Due to mankind's greedy needs various species of plants and animals are becoming extinct or in simple words are coming to an end. Once all the species become extinct the world will be of no use.

 


PLANTS - Boons

Plants give us Oxygen to breathe and take in the Carbon Dioxide released by us. Plants are also the starters of each and every food chain. They also provide us with fruits and vegetables to eat. Plants prevent Soil Erosion as their roots ground the Earth and prevent the landslides which occur due to Soil Erosion. They also provide shelter to animals and shade as well. They provide a natural umbrella during rains. Plants like cotton and jute give us fibers for clothes.



ANIMALS - Boons

They give us meat to eat. Animals like sheep give us wool for our clothes. Animals like birds help in pollination of plants grains. Animals like honeybees provide us with honey. Animals like cows provide us with milk for making dairy products. Animals like camels and rhinos provide us with leather from their hides.

 

Humans for their selfish needs have started various activities that are continuously decreasing the population of the animals and the plants.

1. Illegal Poaching of animals for obtaining their skins, tooth etc. have decreased the population of animals.

2. They cut trees (Deforestation) just to make space for residential plots. They even cut them to get papers, wood for furniture and this leads to Global Warming (Greenhouse Effect). Approximately 17 trees are cut to make 1 ton of paper. Every second, a forest the size of a football field is cut down. 14,800 square miles of forest are lost every year. This is roughly the same size as Switzerland.

CONSERVATION OF PLANTS AND ANIMALS

There have been several steps that the government has taken to prevent all this.

1. They have banned the illegal poaching of animals.

2. Many protected areas have been created like- Biosphere Reserves (Pachmarhi Biosphere Reserve etc.), Wildlife Sancturaies (Bori and Pachmarhi Wildlife Sanctuary etc.) and National Parks (Kaziranga National Park etc.) in the country to keep the animals in a protected environment.

3. Van Mahotsav is celebrated every year to spread awareness about the importance of forests.

 

Some steps that should be taken by us as a part of the world are: -

1. We should stop buying things made from the illegal poaching of the animals like keychains made from their tooth etc.

2. We should reduce our plant needs. And even if we need to cut trees, we should plant those number of saplings.

3. We should plant one sapling on each and every occasion we celebrate.

4. We should be grateful to nature for what has been provided by her to us.

PINDALOO {New Toy, I got Recently}

Hello Everyone Recently, I, Manthak, got a Pindaloo. It is a new type of toy for me. It is manufactured by Simba Toys. I had got it from Hamleys. The Pindaloo can be used for increasing your concentration level. It has brought changes in my concentration levels. I earlier used to forget somethings,sometimes, but now I remember most of them. Its box contains two (2) yellow colour balls in a U- shaped strange blue thing which is actually a pindaloo. It needs us to take out one ball from one side and put the ball in the other in circular motion without touching the balls. My father told me that one of Hamleys employee had a record of a thousand {1000} loops. I am willing to break this record and surely will soon, after great practice. Till now my record is of two hundred five [205] loops, in a single stretch. Firstly, when I got it, I was able to do only five (5) loops. Then it rose to 10, then 30, then 59, then 101, then 150 and then finally I reached at my present score that is 205. Thi...
