Environment Friendly Initiative by SMILE on World Environment Day

Trees are essential to life. They give us a link between the past, present, and future. Planting a tree will not only benefit health and the environment but will also strengthen communities. Trees strengthen the distinctive character of a place and encourage local pride. We live in a world where pollution is more than oxygen, where more trees are felled than the number of buildings built. Deforestation has led to an increase in greenhouse gases, soil erosion and loss of habitat. Thus, S.M.I.L.E is all set for a new endeavor. An initiative to plant a tree sapling in order to improve life and fulfill the essential needs of mankind. So join us on 5th November 2019 for a lifelong investment by helping us to plant a tree for a better future for everyone and to make the world a better place to live.
