The movement of vehicles is gradually on rise in cities. Increase in population, improvement in the standard of living are increasing the number of vehicles. This is causing lot of traffic problems in cities. The solution to this is found as 'Road Widening'. For this work, daily many big trees are being cut down in our country. This is very awful, but there is a solution. Instead of cutting down the trees, they can be trans-located. It means shifted to some other place.

In Hyderabad and Bangalore, some voluntary organisations, social workers, environmental activists and municipalities have taken initiative and have saved many trees by trans-locating them. But this translocation is an expensive work. Interested individuals can support this initiative to save trees by funding this cause along with some business firms and the government. It would cost several thousands to shift a tree from one place to another, but when compared to the benifit a tree offers us in its life time, the cost is very less.

A Tree that lives for 50 years generates :
Rs: 5.3 lakhs worth of oxygen,
recycles Rs: 6.4 lakhs worth of fertility and soil erosion control,
creates Rs: 10.5 lakhs worth of air pollution control,
gives Rs:5.3 lakhs worth of shelter for birds and animals.
it also provides flowers,fruits and lumber.

So, when even one tree is cut down, the nation loses something worth
more than 32 lakhs.So, when even one tree is planted or saved , the nation
earns something worth more than 32 lakhs.We should save trees, that is our
responsibility… Stop cutting down of trees and encourage relocating or translocation of Trees !
