The video explains how trees play a crucial role in the water cycle by capturing atmospheric moisture, intercepting rain, and moderating water flow. Trees act as a sponge, storing water and releasing it slowly, which helps prevent floods and droughts. Deforestation disrupts this balance, leading to less rainfall and more extreme weather patterns. The video emphasizes the importance of reforestation to restore these natural processes and mitigate climate impacts.
