👉And this is video about my caption 

Let's keep our forest green to make a  better world

I chose the caption because...

We must preserve the forest because the trees in the forest produce oxygen that can be inhaled by living things. We know that forests are part of a gift given by God, and we must be grateful for this because forests provide great benefits to humans and the creatures around them. Therefore, we as humans must maintain its sustainability for present and future generations. In Indonesia there are many small islands and large islands overgrown with dense forests. And this is one of the pillars of human life and other creatures, it can also be said as a source of human prosperity. Because the forests that we have to protect save a lot of air. We know that water is needed by humans and it is a raw material that we consume every day. As we know the forest also has several parts such as conservation forest, protected forest, tourism forest, mangrove forest and others. Why should we protect and preserve forests, because the goal is to prosper human life. In the long term, forest can also be referred to as an ecosystem unit in the form of a stretch of land in which there are biological natural resources that support one natural environment and the other natural environment cannot be separated. Ecosystems found in forest areas such as biological natural resources are a reciprocal relationship between elements in nature. In the forest there are living and non-living things that affect and depend on it. Like plants and animals and their surrounding non-living elements together form an ecosystem.
