"The snakes died in the heat, without any tree cover. I sat down and wept over their lifeless forms. It was carnage. I alerted the forest department and asked them if they could grow trees there. They said nothing would grow there. Instead, they asked me to try growing bamboo. It was painful, but I did it. Nature has made a food chain; why can't we stick to it? Who would protect these animals if we, as superior beings, start hunting them?" - Jadav Molai Payeng, who single-handedly created a 1360 acre forest.
We need more people like him, If everyone takes care of just their surroundings, like trees near your house and grow as much greenery as possible. Then the adverse effects of carbon-dioxide can be reduced to a large extent.
If one man can grow a forest, why cant we grow small forests(gardens) around us to help and encourage those who're doing it right.
