Did you know that the use of trees and vegetation in an urban environment as 5 huge benefits?

•Reduced energy use: Trees and vegetation that directly shade buildings decrease demand for air conditioning.

•Improved air quality and lower greenhouse gas emissions: By reducing energy demand, trees and vegetation decrease the production of associated air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. They also remove air pollutants and store and sequester carbon dioxide.

•Enhanced stormwater management and water quality: Vegetation reduces runoff and improves water quality by absorbing and filtering rainwater.

•Reduced pavement maintenance: Tree shade can slow deterioration of street pavement, decreasing the amount of maintenance needed.

•Improved quality of life: Trees and vegetation provide aesthetic value, habitat for many species, and can reduce noise.
