Cause and effect - Decreasing natural resources/trees:cause of flood


           Trees? Trees is a God gift for us. He made trees for us to have fresh air to breathe. He gave us plants/trees and natural resources for us to take care of them. trees help us breathe and provide a home for some kinds of animals and insects. they are the largest and living organisms on earth. By means of photosynthesis the leaves combine the water and salts with carbon dioxide from the air to produce nutrients which feed the tree. In this process, as well as wood, trees create many chemicals, seeds and fruit of great utility to man. It also provide refreshing shade. Trees are effectively the lungs of environment. They take carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and release oxygen via photosynthesis.


           Everyone has a responsibility to take care of our nature. DENR or Department of Environment and Natural Resources they take care of our natures. They plant trees because our trees are decreasing. We also have our responsibilities to take care of our nature, we can plant trees to help our mother earth to increase our natural resources. But what happen to our nature? Why trees are decreasing?

           Many people cut trees, they sell trees, make things out of trees. The worst thing is the kaingin system, slash and burn consists of cutting and burning of forest or woodlands to create fields for agriculture or pasture for livestock, or for other purposes. Kaingin is bad for our ozone layer. Kaingin system is another way of destroying the environment by burning the trees. This may have a great effect not only to our environment but to our lives, because it can bring to us flash floods and landslides that can kill the lives of people.
           I therefore conclude that we need to take care of our nature, when the trees gone we people don't have fresh air to breathe. And we are also suffer when our nature get destroyed.
