Grow A Tree Bags

Glad you stopped by! 

So what's "Grow A Tree Bags" about?  Well, today most people are more aware of problems concerning the environment, and want to do what they can to help prevent problems.  Disasters like the oil in the Gulf just point up how much we need to do all we can to help our environoment.

While the average person can't do much about big disasters, there are little things you can do every day.

A few of these things include:

* Carry water in reusable bottles like this Born Free Stainless Steel Water Bottleinstead of buying bottled water.

* Recycle magazines, cans and any other items you can take to a nearby recycling center.

* Help save trees! Use cloth grocery bags instead of paper.  Plant some trees in your yard.

Why is it so important to save trees?  Remember that trees take in carbon dioxide from the air and release oxygen.  They are a direct counterbalance to human beings and animal life that needs to breath in oxygen to survive, and releases carbon dioxide as waste.

The trees are helping replenish our oxygen supply every day.  We need trees.

You can help save trees by taking reusable shopping bags to the store instead of getting your groceries in paper or plastic.  That way you'll not only save trees, but prevent more plastic from polluting our environoment.

And you can plant trees when possible, and use something like this fabric pot called a Smart Pot Container or tree watering bags like the Tree Gator Slow-Release Watering System to help the tree grow.  Both are real grow a tree bags!

Maybe one person making changes doesn't seem like much, but the more people who do change, the more we help keep the environment in good shape!

Deforestation is occuring at an alarming rate...

It's done for many reasons. Sometimes the trees or charcoal made from burning them are used as, or sold, for fuel or as a commodity.

Sometimes land is cleared for use as pasture for livestock, farms, and settlements.

The problem is that the removal of trees without sufficient reforestation has resulted in damage to habitat, and caused loss of biodiversity and contributed to aridity.

And of course it also means less carbon dioxide is being removed from the air, and oxygen being put back in.

Worse, deforestation commonly causes significant soil erosion, and the deforested land frequently degrades into a wasteland.

And then the second half... deforestation.

It's not hard to see which is better!
