We should preserve nature to preserve life and beauty. A beautiful landscape, full of green vegetation, will not only attract our attention but also will fill us with infinite satisfaction. Unfortunately, because of modernization, much of nature is now yielding to lawns, roads and industrial areas. In a few places, some natural reserves are now being carved out to avert the danger of destroying nature completely. Man will perish without nature, so modern man must continue his struggle to save plants, that give us oxygen and protect us from extinction. Moreover, nature is essential for man's health.
