Trees provide habitats for various species of plants, animals, and microorganisms, contributing to biodiversity preservation. Planting native tree species helps in restoring and maintaining ecosystems. Tree roots help in preventing soil erosion by stabilising the soil structure and reducing surface runoff. They also contribute to soil fertility by enhancing nutrient cycling and organic matter decomposition.Trees regulate the water cycle by absorbing and releasing water through transpiration. They help in groundwater recharge, reduce the risk of floods by intercepting rainfall, and prevent soil erosion along riverbanks and coastlines.They also provide valuable resources such as timber, fruits, nuts, and medicinal plants, contributing to local economies and livelihoods.Trees enhance the aesthetic appeal of landscapes, parks, and urban areas, making them more pleasant and inviting for recreational activities.
