We should protect our forests. Many living beings and animals live there. Trees have started to be cut down, so they should be saved.

If we don't take care, the forest will be destroyed.

Lots of trees are being cut down in the name of development and our forests are disappearing. If we do not spread awareness of sustainable development, then we will lose our forests and we will also lose our lungs.

If we do not protect our forests, then the medicinal herbs and trees of our forests, which contribute to our economic situation, may be destroyed. Therefore, it is very important to protect our forests.

The forest is depleting

We should not cut down forests. If deforestation occurs, we will not get oxygen, and there will be a shortage of medicinal herbs, which will make us sick.

To save the environment, more trees and plants should be planted. But nowadays people are not planting them. They are only cutting them down. Everything is slowly getting destroyed.
— VEER SINGH SIJUI · Durusai, Seraikela-Kharsawan, Jharkhand
Even many large trees in the forest have been depleted, and there are no medicinal herbs left. Animals and birds in the forest are also disappearing. Therefore, we absolutely need the forest.
— Mukunda Majhi · Udulibeda, Malkangiri, Odisha
It seems that in a few years, the government will destroy the entire forest, and it feels as if the indigenous people have taken it upon themselves to save the environment.

It is certainly remembered. Our people are destroying forests. As a result, when they go to the forest, no forest products, including food items, can be found. It would have been better if forests were not destroyed.

We went and within 20 years the forest trees will be cut very rapidly, due to which we will suffer losses and wild animals will also not be there at this time.

Observe the changes or damages occurring in the forest. Our wild animals are dying due to destructive felling, and this is causing great loss.
— Rajesh Mallik · Boudh, Odisha
It is only due to your (mere) invitation/request that there is a lack of trees and plants on the hills. As a result, we are not getting rain on time. Also, due to deforestation, wood, leaves, or roots, which were helpful for our survival, are not available. Therefore, we request the government to plant trees and plants in our forests as part of afforestation. And if some assistance was provided, it would have been good. Proper management.
— Subash Sabhasundar · Maradipanga, Kandhamal, Odisha
Forest trees affect us. The environment is the right field.

If we do nothing, then within twenty years, along with losing our dance and music, forests are also disappearing, and we might lose all of them.
