Did You Know?

Trees absorb carbon dioxide from the air to form carbohydrates that are used in the tree’s structure and function.
    100 trees remove 21 tons of CO2 per year!

Trees filter the air we breathe by removing dust and other particulates. Rain then washes the pollutants to the ground.
    100 trees remove 604 lbs of pollutants per year!
