In the forest, there is a plastic packet of food thrown by careless individuals stuck in a tree, which turns into a trap. Wild Indian myna or common myna (Acridotheres tristis) birds are trying to tear the plastic and eat the food, sometimes getting their beaks stuck in the plastic hole. This incident occurred on World Forestry Day at Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on March 21, 2024. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization has been celebrating World Forestry Day since 1971 to raise awareness about the importance of trees. Celebrated on March 21, it highlights the importance of forests in our lives. The 2024 theme, "Forests and Innovation: New Solutions for a Better World," emphasizes the need for innovative approaches to address global challenges such as climate change and biodiversity loss. Besides unsustainable management practices, airborne pollution, and climate change, forests are also threatened by fragmentation due to rapidly spreading urban areas, plastics, and transport networks. The healthy functioning of forest ecosystems and the biodiversity they foster are at risk.

Sugar is a sweet substance made from the juice of trees or fruits. In India, sugar is usually made from sugarcane or sugarcane juice. Besides, beet and maple are two other major forest sources of sugar. The chemical name of sugar is sucrose and the chemical symbol is C12 H22 O11. Granulated sugar is pure crystalline sucrose. It can be classified into seven types of sugar based on the crystal size, from coarse (0.75 - 0.6mm) to medium (0.5 - 0.3mm) to small-size (0.3 - 0.02mm). Most of these are used only by food processors and professional bakers. Each crystal size provides unique functional characteristics that make the sugar appropriate for the food processor's special needs. Sugar produced in India is mainly of granulated type. Granulated sugar is further classified into various types based on color and grain size. According to the Indian Standards Specifications (ISI), there are around 20 grades of sugar based on grain size and colors. The color series has four grades designated as 30,29,28 and 27, while the grain size has five grades namely A, B, C, D, E. The Bulk of production in the country is of C, D, and E grains, branded as large, medium, and small, and has a color specification of 30. The D grade produced in the country is comparable to world standards. Different types of sugar were produced from sugar cane at Tehatta, West Bengal, India on 02/09/2023.
