How plants can help the environment is that they give us oxygen (air) to breath. They also filter the air and give us fresh air to breath. We breath out CO2 and they turn that into oxygen and makes the earth a greener place to live in.

Plants change the earth in life by creating oxygen and breathing in carbon dioxide, which is breathed out by humans. When plants die and decompose, they act as fertilizer, making the soil richer.

They don't "save the Earth", they make it fit for humans and other animals to live on.

They do it by using CO2 and water to make sugar and oxygen, the latter being released for animals to use. And plants are food for many, many animals. Plants are an integral part of the biosphere.by justyce they do save the earth they give us oxygen and paper that we need for school and work.

* Plants and trees give us life, Shelter,water, medicine, food and protection. (wood an leaves for Building materials, fuel/gas and oils). Roots like cassava/yucca as well as skins from Oranges, lemons, cucumber, mint bush and grapefruits trees for example make natural shampoos and soaps and cleaning products. Leaves, barks and roots and fruit skin for Medicine, Clothing (trees like Crocus, cotton, Hemp, Flamboyant, Fern, Willow, Ficus, Rattan, Bamboo, Hibiscus, coconut trees to name a few

* Trees and plants also provide food for animals we depend on for material from domestic animals including Sheeps, Camels, furry animals like Dogs, cats, llama, Alpaca and Spiders and even horses, donkeys and zebras, which provide us with wool, silk, leather and as well as cashmere material to name a few Fuel is important for because it cooks keep you warm in the winter etc.( oils, gas, wood are all plant derivatives.)

* It provides food for everything in the circle of life which man depends on for a long healthy life. One cannot live without the other.

* Plants and trees cool the earth and can stop global warming and diseases like cancers, lupus, Alzheimer and baldness. (Clean air, provided that you exercise regularly and consume a healthy diet is the key) the taller the grass the longer you live. Because grass provides low level of good nitrate, a natural substance mixed with the atmosphere during rainfall. Just imagine living to be 700 years old. It can be done if grass is not cut below 6 feet in unused spaces.

see info below:

1000 acres of certain crops can provide 5000 gallons of water to a large farm for, many vines in the amazon jungle do and in diverse islands around the globe store water as well. This often create natural waterfalls..

*Abundant trees and plant provide rain even in off seasons once clusters

*Trees that can withstand wind can protect you home from flooding and keep your roof from ending up a mile down the road in the event of a storm. Some trees that can protect your home are as follows. Live Oak, Mahogany trees, Japanese Maple, Indian Ficus benghalensis, Southern Magnolia, Saucer Magnolia (Japanese Magnolia, Tulip Tree), Mango tree, Jujube tree (Jo-Jo tree), Crape Myrtle, Dahoon Holly, American Holly, Yaupon Holly, Vitex or Chaste Tree, Native Fringe Tree, Redbud, Ficus tree, baobab tree, Kuka (African Baobab), Tamarind and locust trees to name a few

Focus tree make tires and gloves for cars

Remember

*Plants convert carbon dioxide to oxygen

*The provide you with natural air-condition when used as shade trees as appose to an air-conditioning the number one cause of death in the USA

*Some trees store water excellent for arid lands where water is an issue like the Kuka and Mandak tree to mention a few.

* Provide us with food (vegetables, fruit and cereal crops - wheat, flour, rice etc)

· Plant can allow you to grow and keep a full head of nice strait hair all your life.

Note** If there is not enough trees to shade you while you are outdoor it will make you hair dry/course and unmanageable.

· Plants make excellent natural "shampoo and soap" if you know which one to use. that does not cause dry skin allowing you to wrinkle due to age faster

* Tall climbable shade trees can save your life in the event of a storm. If you need to reach higher ground mountains are not nearby.

* Trees can be used to leverage something in life saving emergency. For example: a large tree can stop the average car or buggy from completely falling of a road due to a broken rail or on hanging off a cliff. Provided you have a durable rope and the know how.

* As mentioned above they also provide animals with food, which in turn end up on our table as well - they also contribute to secondary food sources such as milk, which comes from cows which eat grass.

* THERE ARE PLENTY OF OTHER THINGS plants can do - just take a moment to think about a world without plants! Just imagine yourself not existing. If trees die the world dies. If plastic reign and are not recycled properly as oppose to glass natural. Plastic can diminish natural food resources like the fish!

Remember plants recycle your waste and provide us with clean all natural oxygen! They also provide habitats for animals, people and insects. They also provide food for humans and animals. I hope you learned something today. Plant a tree today. Some take 200 years to grow and under 6 minutes to cut if you have the right tools.

Plants absorb carbon dioxide and emit oxygen. Plants also add nutrients to the soil. Plants are also a source of food for many animals.
