Due to the cutting of trees and plants in the village, various herbs and food items are becoming extinct. We can protect them.

We should protect our forests. Many living beings and animals live there. Trees have started to be cut down, so they should be saved.

If we do not protect our forests, then the medicinal herbs and trees of our forests, which contribute to our economic situation, may be destroyed. Therefore, it is very important to protect our forests.

Lots of trees are being cut down in the name of development and our forests are disappearing. If we do not spread awareness of sustainable development, then we will lose our forests and we will also lose our lungs.

To save the environment, more trees and plants should be planted. But nowadays people are not planting them. They are only cutting them down. Everything is slowly getting destroyed.

We must protect our water, forest, and land, or else, gradually, the forest department will have our forests cut down, which was our family's ancestral home.
— Ram Maravi · Mandla, Madhya Pradesh
We all used to get forest products before, but now they are not available. Therefore, forests should be protected. It would be good if everyone remains aware.
— KusaPradhani · Tapurbuduni, Rayagada, Odisha
We should not cut down forests. If deforestation occurs, we will not get oxygen, and there will be a shortage of medicinal herbs, which will make us sick.
— Chanda · Sonbhadra, Uttar Pradesh
Earlier, in our village's forest, we found many abundant herbs. But unfortunately, the roots of these herbs in the forest are being severely destroyed. So, we will try to keep them alive for this. I will go a bit.
— Devisingh Solanki · Alirajpur, Madhya Pradesh
Even many large trees in the forest have been depleted, and there are no medicinal herbs left. Animals and birds in the forest are also disappearing. Therefore, we absolutely need the forest.

Our Similipal forest is getting destroyed day by day, so the government needs to pay attention to it.

Medicinal plants and roots found in the forest are no longer available. We must protect them.
— Laxmi Bagh · Sundargarh, Odisha
We have been living in this village for nearly 100 years. Our tribe originated in this surrounding area. The forest has undergone many changes; valuable trees, herbs, and animals have all disappeared. If we do not protect it, then within the next 20 years, the forest will be destroyed, and all types of wild animals, medicinal plants, and vines will vanish. Camps should be organized to teach the younger generation traditional forest and tribal knowledge from the elders, to pass it on to the next generation, and to preserve it.
— Kumudini Chhanchan · Bhojpur, Sambalpur, Odisha
If we don't save the herbs of the jungle, then all of us will be destroyed.

We have been living in this village for approximately 100 years. Our tribe originated in this surrounding area. There have been many changes in the forest; valuable trees, herbs, and animals have all disappeared. If we do not protect it, then within the next 20 years, along with the destruction of the forest, all types of wild animals, medicinal plants, and creepers will disappear. Camps should be organized to teach traditional forest and tribal knowledge from elders to the younger generation, transfer it to the next generation, and preserve it.
— Kumudini Chhanchan · Bhojpur, Sambalpur, Odisha
I have been living in this village since my grandfather's time. Our tribe originated in this surrounding area. The forest has changed a lot; valuable trees, herbs, and animals have all disappeared. If we do not protect it, the forest will be destroyed within the next 20 years, and all kinds of wild animals, medicinal trees, and plants will vanish. The younger generation should be taught traditional forest and tribal knowledge from elders and transfer it to the next generation, and camps should be organized to preserve it.
— DASHARATH SINGH · Jamunkira, Sambalpur, Odisha
We should preserve our culture so that herbs and forests remain.

To save water and forests, we should plant trees and protect them. We should not cut them down, as we get pure air and water from them. Therefore, we should protect the forests.
— Ram Kumari
It seems that in a few years, the government will destroy the entire forest, and it feels as if the indigenous people have taken it upon themselves to save the environment.

It is certainly remembered. Our people are destroying forests. As a result, when they go to the forest, no forest products, including food items, can be found. It would have been better if forests were not destroyed.
