Burning of Those Dry Fallen Leaves of Trees
It is reported that about 30 million tones of dry leaves are dumped into landfills every year in America. In India most of these leaves are either burnt on the floor where they fall or collected by poor people and stored for burning during winter season to generate heat.
Grow Banyan and Tamarind for a better environment
Both the banyan and tamarind trees have large canopy and plenty of leaves. These produce lots of oxygen and absorb lots of carbon dioxide. Thus, besides numerous other benefits they keep up the balance of environment.
Conservation of Wildlife
Conservation of species in their natural habitats- in areas where they occur under normal conditions is called in-situ conservation.
This type of conservation strategy protects the entire area. Such an area is protected and maintained to conserve all the known or unknown species inhabiting it.
In this type of conservation, species are not isolated or provided with health care, food, or mating facilities. Only factors detrimental to species’ existence and development are eliminated in this conservation strategy. Human interference, such as hunting, cutting down trees, collecting firewood, etc., is completely banned in such areas.
Energy for us
Anything from which we can derive energy is called as a source of energy. Since all the life processes need energy, energy is most important for our survival.
Our body derives energy from the food we eat. Thus, the food we eat is the source of energy for our body. But this is not the whole story. We need energy for our growth and economic development as well.
The increasing Human Population is putting immense pressure on Resources
A population is a group of individuals of a particular species occupying a particular area at a specific time.

Biogas and Biogas Plant
Biogas is a mixture of 56% methane gas (CH4), 40% carbon dioxide (C02) and rest, a mixture of H2, H2S and N2. It is produced by digestion, Pyrolysis and hydro gasification in a specific plant called as Biogas Plant. Biogas plants are of various types like — Janata biogas plant, Dean Bandhu biogas plant, Khadi and Village Industries Corporation (KVIC) type biogas plant, Pragati Design biogas plant and Chinese biogas plant.
Animal Body- Parts and Sense Organs
Most animals of the same kind have same body parts. But their body parts differ in size, shape, color and functions. They have different types of sense organs as well.
Plants and their Different Parts
Living organisms capable of synthesizing food on their own are called as plants. They contain chlorophyll, the green magnesium compound which helps in trapping the energy from sun. This energy runs the process of photosynthesis through which glucose is basically synthesized in leaves and green stems on combining together the atmospheric carbon dioxide and water.
Heredity, Its Physical Basis and Variations
Some specific characters are found in the parents of each species. These characters are transferred from generation to generation through the process of sexual reproduction.
