Trees provide many economic, social, and environmental benefits that lead to improved well-being and a better quality of life.
The benefits provided by trees in one year are:
Energy Conservation
Trees are one of the most effective natural methods of capturing and storing carbon emissions. Strategically placed trees help conserve energy around your home.
Stormwater Control
To manage stormwater runoff, cities are forced to invest in building expensive systems to capture and control rainwater. Trees capture precipitation and store it efficiently.
Clean and Cool Air
Urban areas generate heat and pollution, whereas trees provide shade, filter the air, and reduce temperatures.
Community Well-being and Human Health
Numerous studies have shown that environments with trees help reduce stress. Areas surrounded by healthy trees provide a pleasant, relaxing, and invigorating atmosphere, and trees placed along streets reduce the frequency and severity of traffic accidents while also acting as a sound barrier.
Property Values
Even a single tree that generates shade can increase a property’s value by up to 10%. Invest in your home or community by planting at least one tree!
Job Creation
The rational use of forest resources within a community contributes significantly to the local economy, providing jobs and substantial income for those communities.
