Hugging the tree means expressing your support to protect them and nurture them.This was the main purpose of Shri Vision Social Empowerment and Welfare Association (SRV SEWA) to take up this gesture so very seriously.Trees are the largest and longest living organisms on earth.
To grow tall the tree has become a miracle of engineering and a complex chemical factory. It is able to take water and salts out of the earth and lift them up to the leaves, sometimes over 400 ft above. By means of photosynthesis the leaves combine the water and salts with carbon dioxide from the air to produce the nutrients which feed the tree. In this process, as well as wood, trees create many chemicals, seeds and fruit of great utility to man. Trees also remove carbon dioxide, the main greenhouse gas, from the air.
Trees are of continued importance to the environment. Tropical rain forests have of particular significance; although they now occupy less than 6 per cent of the land surface of the earth they probable sustain more than half of the biological species on the planet.
We continually remain to be indebted to trees and their importance to all the life forms present on earth.They help Mother Earth to reduce the effects of Global Warming by reducing the levels of Carbon di oxide in the atmosphere.Carbon di oxide is mainly responsible to increase the heat to a sweltering limit.
SRV SEWA the non profit organisation help this cause gain wider publicity by making the attempt a world record event.The efforts to conserve nature and trees is well understood by everybody.They gathered 25 students and staff members of Institute of Management and Development to hug the trunk of a big banyan tree having circumference of 442 inches for a minute.
This record attempt was attempted for the first time to lay the significance of banyan trees.The event was supported by Dainik Dabang Dunia a leading newspaper at Indore,Madhya Pradesh,India on November 6,2011.
