coconut is different from most other fruits because every part of it is useful.People have been using
coconuts in many different ways.Here are some of them.

for energy because they are cheap and clean.Coconut oil has already been made into fuel().It
can power cars,trucks,ships and many more.
Students at Baylor University found that coconut husks()can take in water very well.So
mixing coconut husks with dry soil (helps the soil to hold onto more of the water.The
students also find that coconut husks can take the place of plastic in some cases.If this is possible,
it will help people use less plastic.
The husk of the coconut is a perfect package.It protects the coconut from harm.That's why
some countries allow people to send the coconut without any packaging.Each year,tourists post
about3,O00 of these“coconut postcards'”.
Coconuts grow naturally in over 80 countries of the world.They require only sun and proper
rain.No special care is needed.Every year,more than 61 million tons of coconuts are produced.It
is not surprising,then,that people want to find so many uses for the coconut.
