       Trees, are a major part of the environment. It is home to many animals ,and it takes on a role in global warming. Animals that make their homes on trees are bugs and birds. When trees are cut these poor animals lose their home. Trees absorbs carbon dioxide which is then used in the process of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is when plants use carbon dioxide to make a food source it use to live. This source of simple sugar are called glucose. Glucose is made when carbon dioxide is altered with many other materials such as sunlight ,and oxygen to produce a food the plant can use as a resource. This resource is called glucose/ simple sugar (notes from Ms. Fernadez). Trees goes through a cycle. The start of the cycle is when trees absorb oxygen and carbon dioxide. The carbon are either used in the process of photosynthesis or kept inside the tree. This carbon can be released to the ground under the tree. From this process when the tree dies it will simply release all the carbon it has absorbed. Furniture's has carbon too so trees remove parts of the oxygen it absorbs and releases most of it for further info visit "forestsformainesfuture.org". Trees being cut is happening. From this point of the U.S to the other end of the world forest are slowly being cut down from many tree reduce to very few trees.
        There was once two trees in front of M.S 51. Those two trees were cut down. We lose our shade and it made M.S 51 look deserted. This is how a tree affects me. There were many times how i wonder is my backyard missing something. When spring came the tree in my backyard wasn't growing. This made my backyard look sad missing that one tree was a lot.
        This book was written at my point of view of trees being cut. How tree can mean memory. Every tree has it's story. This is a fiction about how trees can affect and cause people pain and joy.
        There may be many trees but each tree has a story from it's birth till it's death. Trees can mean a lot but there isn't a tree that is ever alike.
