Trees are known to benefit people living around green areas. Plants contribute to a positive impact on the physical and mental health and well-being of people. Greenery encourages exercising in people, sports of some kind that contribute significantly to reducing stress and giving an upliftment to their moods. Improved quality in environment with more trees planted and the cleaner air are additional benefits the society receives from these kinds of initiatives.



Dr Raajiv Singhal, Managing Director & CEO, Marengo Asia Healthcare said, “Trees promote health and social well-being by removing air pollution, reducing stress, encouraging physical activity, and promoting social ties and community. Tree planting has been the call of the recent times, and today, the idea is growing strong as awareness on how trees can protect and save lives has invaded minds, young and old.

Dr Keyur Parikh, Chairman, Marengo CIMS says, “ As a part of our commitment to environment and being socially responsible, Marengo CIMS has initiated the tree plantation drive. Our endeavour is to contribute as much as we can to the environment trying to impact good health through cleaner air.”



The loss of forests has an immeasurable effect on the health factor on this planet. Trees act as the lungs of the planet, absorbing CO2 from the atmosphere, retaining carbon and releasing oxygen. A human being emits an average of 9 tons of CO2 per year, and a single tree is capable of cleaning up to 250 Kg of this CO2 during its lifespan. Every tree destroyed leads to more CO2 emission and destruction of one of our greatest allies in the fight against climate change.
