The birth of a child is celebrated by people showering the newborn with gifts, expensive clothes to toys. Similarly the various other occasions, like death, marriage etc. could be celebrated by gifting a sapling. Even each and every individual, family or gram panchayats or like groups should take a resolution to adopt a practice to plant saplings on so many occasions celebrated in the country.
Even in the offices either Govt. or Pvt. may celebrate birthdays of employees, women’s day, independence day, republic day, children’s day etc. by planting trees and growing and caring them. If this policy is encouraged by us individually or in group, this will be beneficial for us only. Further, on official celebrations we gift bouquets, shawls, and other expensive gifts to the guests, we can replace this with the plants (flowering, foliage, medicinal, religious or fruit bearing). This type of behaviour will definitely encourage the people to plant around ourselves. This will surely give us cool atmosphere, aesthetic flowers and colours, pure, healthy and nutritious fruits and vegetables and so many unseen but felt benefits.
Simultaneously, we can make arrangements to dispose waste as per their categories, like bio-degradable or non-biodegradable or recyclable. Biodegradable waste can be utilized to produce manure at our place only and further can be utilized in nourishing our own garden.
By this way, we can generate our own living environment which is fresh and beautiful. We cannot blame any one else to pollute the surroundings. So, make each occasion green and beautiful.
