Importance Of Trees




Trees are  important part of our world.  They provide wood for building and pulp for making paper.  They are sources of home provision  for all sorts of insects, birds and other animals.  Many types of fruits and nuts come from trees -- including apples, oranges, walnuts, pears and peaches, etc.  Even the sap of trees is useful as food for insects and some trees provides  saps called( latex) used in the production of rubber. Trees also help to keep our air clean and our ecosystems healthy.  We breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide.  Trees breathe in carbon dioxide and breathe out oxygen.

Trees plays lots of useful rolls for us, our environment and other plants and animals in nature but we don't just love trees for practical reasons.  Trees can also be very beautiful and tall ,they seem to touch the sky and so big around you can't even hug them.  Thousands of artists, professional and amateur alike have painted pictures of trees and thousands of poems, songs and stories have been written about them.  I would guess that just about everyone on earth has at some point in their life stopped to enjoy the beauty of a tree.

Types of Trees:

There are two main types of trees: deciduous and evergreen.  Deciduous trees lose all of their leaves for part of the year.  In cold climates, this happens aroumd the autumn so that the trees are bare throughout the winter.  In hot and dry climates, deciduous trees usually lose their leaves during the dry season.

Evergreen trees don't lose all of their leaves at the same time -- they always have some foliage.  They do lose their leaves a little at a time with new ones growing in to replace the old lost leafs.
