Dimapur, June 24 (MExN): People around the world cut down trees for different purposes but have not realised to replaced it by planting another tree. Looking at the ecological and environmental problems such as landslides, soil erosion, pollution, etc. caused by human wanton felling of trees, the ‘The Challengers’ group planted some 60 to 70 trees at Mokokchung town from Assam Rifles ground to Sewak Gate under the theme 'Care God’s Creation' on June 22.
The Challengers feel that trees are important for human survival. Therefore, every responsible citizen must plant a tree whenever a tree is cut down. “Most importantly, planting a tree is also a spiritual activity, which shows that we care for God's creation and the beauty of His world thereby to make this world a better place to live in,” stated a press note issued by Kilang Longkumer (leader).
