We ‘Felt’:

• These products are available in our world at very limited amount.

• If steps will not be taken to find the possible alternate to replace these, than we will suffer very soon.

• We will not have trees in our village, water in our wells and petrol in our car and bikes.

• We can join hand to plant new trees in our school and village surroundings.

• We will make the people aware of the upcoming situations.

• The alternates to replace or increase the amount of these natural resources.
