Deforestation is the permanent devastation of native forests and woods. Deforestation happens in many ways: when trees are cut down to grow crops, for livestock, logging so wood can be used for building things like houses and furniture, for roads and neighborhoods, for firewood, and forest fires.

Deforestation is affecting our environment and the way our earth appears. At least eighty percent of our forests have been destroyed. Our rain forests are disappearing. It has been estimated that in the last two years around 728 km of forest – roughly half the size of Dhaka- have been wiped out clear.

Although there may be a need to cut down trees to some extent, humans and other species need to protect the forests and woodlands. Trees are not just beautiful; they also house many different kinds of plants and animals that could become extinct with deforestation. They also provide good things for humans and for the environment.

Deforestation disrupts the carbon cycle. The forest trees take carbon dioxide as well as pollutants from the atmosphere. When the trees are destroyed or burned or left to rot, carbon is released into the air as C02 and methane.

Methane and C02 contribute to the greenhouse effect. According to the World rainforest Movement, twenty-five percent of our medicine comes from the forests. Deforestation affects our water, too. Trees take up water from their roots and then expel it into the air as moisture.

This moisture then gets converted into clouds that will bring rain. If we have fewer trees, the atmosphere will be drier. With fewer trees, our soil does not have as much support and much silt is released into the waters, resulting in loss of soil and more flooding. And, what happens to the animals that make a home in our trees? Where do they go?

To protect our forests and woodlands, the animals that live in them, the soil, the waters, the very air that we all breathe, and for all humanity’s health and well-being, we must use paper products responsibly and sparingly; and without doubt we must make sure to recycle paper products.

Try to imagine the earth without our trees, not just because of the things above, but also for the beauty of nature. Almost all of us have walked down a road with the sun beating ruthlessly down on us and wished silently that there were some trees along that road. There are so many things associated with trees that affect our senses as well, like the soothing sounds of the wind blowing through the leaves, the sound of the branches swaying in the wind and the ever so sweet chirping of the sparrows at dawn and dusk.

Seriously can we imagine a world without our trees? No, definitely not. So we must all join hands to prevent deforestation, each in our little way. The world did exist before the making of paper. A lot of things like paper kitchen towels, facial tissues can be avoided if only we are not so obsessed with the word disposable. So go for that which is reusable and recyclable instead. Our trees are our legacy given to us by our ancestors, it’s the legacy we must leave our own.

There are six seasons in Bangladesh. Of all seasons, I like the spring most. It is the most charming and delightful season. It is the queen of all seasons. It is the loveliest and the most attractive season. It is favorable to all.
The scorching heat of the summer is unbearable. Everybody feels uncomfortable in the burning weather of the summer. Tanks, ponds, and rivers dry up and become muddy. People suffer a great deal. Then comes the rainy season. The sky remains cloudy. It rains cats and dogs. People are compelled to keep indoors. The autumn is a lovely season, no doubt. But it cannot be compared with the spring. After autumn comes the winter. The living creatures shiver with cold. Nature looks gloomy and dismal. Trees are leafless. Nature becomes bare and bald. Then comes up in the spring, my favorite season. There prevails an equable temperature. It is pleasant and lovely. Nature gets back its life in the spring. Trees are full of new leaves. With the advent of spring, nature puts on a gay and lively appearance. Every object of nature becomes fresh. Flowers bloom forth in thousands. They are of various colors. Some of them are sweet-smelling, some are exceedingly beautiful. The fine display of colors they present is really fascinating. Flowers attract bees and butterflies. Bees hum and fly from flower to flower in search of honey. The colorful wings of butterflies present a very charming sight.
As soon as the spring sets in, a gentle breeze from the south begins to blow. It spreads the sweet smell of flowers and makes the air balmy and fragrant. It passes through the fresh leaves and produces a sweet rustling sound in the air. To this music is added the sweet twittering of the birds. The wandering notes of the cuckoo make an appeal to our heart and stir our mind.
People feel very much refreshed and cheerful. Flowers bloom everywhere in the gardens, in the bushes, and in the forests. The spring is the season which gives delight to boys and girls, men and women, young and old. The spring is the season of joy, comfort, and vivacity. The spring makes our land beautiful with vegetation, light, and color. There are joy and liveliness on all sides.
But this season is very elusive in the sense that it comes and goes almost imperceptibly. Its duration is so short that it disappears before we have just begun to realize its charms. It does not oppress our mind with any lingering monotony. This shortness of its duration, is perhaps, one of the reasons why people like it most.
