“A nation that destroys its soils destroys itself. Forests are the lungs of our land, purifying the air and giving fresh strength to our people”
— Franklin D. Roosevelt

Simplified Meaning:
When a country harms its land, it hurts itself. Healthy soil and forests are crucial for our survival. Soil is needed to grow food, and forests clean the air. Imagine if farmers poisoned the soil, it would lead to poor harvests, and people would go hungry. Similarly, if we cut down too many trees, the air quality would suffer, and people might get sick because we rely on trees to filter the air. Just like our lungs are essential for breathing, forests are vital for the land. Taking care of the environment is like taking care of our own health. By protecting our land and forests, we ensure that our country remains strong and its people stay healthy. Think about recycling, reducing waste, or planting a tree to contribute to this effort.
