1. Trees rely on water and food for growing. They are planted outside and watered by our school gardeners daily.

2. The plants and trees need an environment with less pollution around them. People in local communities keep places less polluted so that plants and trees can survive. For instance, in late 2022, The Nature Conservancy (TNC) established a program in Singapore as a global center for innovation, partnerships and science to help scale up conservation and climate impact in the region.

1. Instead of buying fertilisers we can just use the dead leaves that fell off the tree to provide nutrients and mineral salts to the plants.

2. Local communities can raise awareness about the value on nature areas to encourage positive behaviour that does not damage nature. For instance, Dragonfly watch, trains participants to identify different dragon flies species at their assigned sites. This results in greater protection of this species by raising awareness of their importance in the environment.

1. when teachers and students use paper we may not be using more paper than we actually need, therefore wasting earths resources. For example,Excessive paper usage in schools contributes significantly to environmental degradation by depleting natural resources and increasing waste. In the United States, a typical school consumes approximately 2,000 sheets of paper daily, amounting to over 360,000 sheets annually. Collectively, with around 100,000 schools nationwide, this equates to an estimated 32 billion sheets of paper used each year.

2. Air Pollution: Emissions from factories, vehicles, and burning fossil fuels lead to climate change, acid rain, and respiratory issues in living organisms. For example,The combustion of fossil fuels releases greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide (CO₂) and methane (CH₄), which trap heat in the atmosphere, leading to global warming. In Singapore, the annual mean temperature increased by 0.24°C per decade from 1984 to 2022, indicating a warming trend.

2. People bring disadvantages by causing soil erosion. Global warming melts down ice caps which increases the ocean's volume. This causes frequent flooding . Thus, soil near the sea line absorbs alot water causing soil erosion. This impacts trees as they aren't able to cling onto the soil . Thus the trees are uprooted (give actual place names or data to support)
