Trees give off oxygen that we need to breathe. Trees reduce the amount of storm water runoff, which reduces erosion and pollution in our waterways and may reduce the effects of flooding. Many species of wildlife depend on trees for habitat. Trees provide food, protection, and homes for many birds and mammals. n addition to the carbon dioxide trees capture, they also help the soil capture and store carbon. Despite not doing such an incredible job as oceans do – absorbing around 90% of all carbon emissions and then suffering the impacts of ocean acidification – trees are extremely important to help stop climate change. 'PLANT A TREE, PLANT LOVE' phase I is an online project with 12 Leos, Leo Lions, Lions participation. Lots of our club members joined hands with us and specially our zone chairperson Lion Channaka De Silva participated with this online event.
