SUBJECT: informing about the excessive cutting of trees
Sir,
I am writing this letter to express a great concern of mine regarding the excessive cutting of trees by the municipality. I am an environmentalist and I think this to be a grave problem.
I am aware that trees must be cut in order to build the new roads and buildings; however, there is no system in place to replace the cut trees. (Show your actual problem and situation).
For example, in many cities after road construction is complete the entire road is lined at the side with new seedlings. This prevents detrimental effects on the land such as landfall and erosion. It also ensures clean air by preventing the buildup of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, especially with all the cars driving on the new road.
To conclude, I do not believe trees need to be cut to the great extent that they are being cut now. The municipality must lower this. When there are trees being cut, there need to program in place to replace them elsewhere.
Awareness should be spread through media. Hope you publish this on your newspaper.
Yours faithfully
Kanika
