Appreciating the beauty of nature

We live on the most beautiful planet Earth, which has very clean and attractive nature. Nature provides us with a variety of beautiful flowers, sea, attractive birds, animals, blue sky, land, forests, mountains and many more things. “We should appreciate the nature around us because it is a most precious gift given to us to enjoy but not to harm”.  Nature is essential for us to live a healthy life, so we should keep it clean and conserve it for future generations!
