Solution

(i) Rahul's father's choice of purchasing the gift was better because wood is one of the main reason for cutting of trees. Trees are cut for commercial purposes of wood. Hence, a wooden toy would be a reason for deforestation whereas a sapling i.e. a young tree would be beneficial both to the environment and the people. As the sapling will grow into a tree. it will add may benefits to the environment like greenery, adding oxygen etc. Hence, a sapling is an eco-friendly gift.
(ii) Other eco-friendly gifts could be a pup or a kitten (as many people are fond of having a pet) or a solar lamp that will save electricity,
