Since 1992 we have provided our customers with reliable scientific evidence that the benefits of urban forests add real value to communities.
Our research confirms that trees in our community forests are assets that pay us back.
Trees:
- Conserve energy by shading buildings and paved surfaces
- Filter airborne pollutants
- Remove atmospheric carbon dioxide
- Reduce stormwater runoff
- Increase the value of our homes
