While Others Planted Trees, He Chose to Save Them

For the last 12 years, Gopal, a potter from Uttar Pradesh, has spent his time, money, and energy watering roadside trees. What began with a few buckets of water has grown into a daily mission carried out with a 500-litre water tank. 🌳

He noticed that many saplings were being planted but few survived due to lack of care. So instead of planting more trees, he chose to save the ones already in the ground. Despite ridicule, obstacles, and limited resources, he never gave up.

Today, people know him as "Oxygen Baba." His story proves that protecting nature doesn't require great wealth—just consistency, compassion, and the courage to keep showing up. ❤️
