Save A Life !

Earth allows you to stand on it, Why dont we help trees to stand by us. It very nice of the Singapore Goverment to ensure trees are grown, maintained and preserved. They take utmost care for the trees as much as they do for their citizens. This picture was taken near the Tampines MRT.
