Cutting Down Trees

Have you ever wondered why people cut down trees. Well it is because people have found out many years ago about how trees help us. Trees help us for Stationary, Oxygen, and many other objects in life.

Trees also live on this planet so that means that we should be taking care of them like how we take care of yourself. People cut down trees because it is useful in life. Trees gives us paper, rubbers, bark, wood, pencils, oxygen and more other amazing stuff but we make that stuff but trees give us that material. Trees can keep us warm from its wood and paper that trees create. Oxygen is very important because it helps us living such as breathing and fresh air. Some people think that cutting trees down are bad but really its not because it helps us with making life easier. Trees can keep us warm from its wood and paper that we create.

Trees are very important because it doesn’t only help us with objects, it also helps us with oxygen and remember that trees are good to us so we can be good to them.
