Top 5 Benefits of Trees

Trees come in all kinds of shapes, colors, and sizes. They not only make the world a more beautiful place, they provide shade, shelter and serenity. Although their benefits are endless, we have compiled a list of the top 5 benefits of plants.

Air Purifier

• One acre of trees has the capacity to remove 5 tons of carbon dioxide and up to 13 tons of other particles and gases annually. A single tree can absorb 1 ton of carbon over a 40-year lifespan.

Invest in Power

• It is estimated that 50 million well-planted shade trees have the potential to eliminate the need for seven 100-megawatt power plants.

saves energy

• Carefully placed trees can save 25 to 30 percent in energy consumption. Deciduous trees are the most beneficial for energy conservation because they provide shade in the warm months and sunlight in the cold months.
   

Hierarchical filter

• A hundred mature trees can capture up to 100,000 gallons of rainfall per year, reduce runoff and filter water.

Oxygenator

• One tree supplies a days worth of oxygen for a family of four.
