Solution
No, it is not possible for us to survive without trees and animals.
Trees are very important for us as they provide oxygen for breathing. They also give us fruits, vegetables, wood and various other products.
Similarly, animals provide meat, eggs, dairy products (milk, cheese, etc.), wool, etc. They are also used by humans for various other purposes such as carrying loads, protecting houses from thieves, etc.
Thus, we can say that we cannot survive without trees and animals.
