Environmental Benefits

The Lifeblood of Our Planet

Trees provide oxygen, improve air quality, conserve water, preserve soil, and support wildlife. Planting a tree is one of the best investments for our planet, offering benefits for decades. It instils a sense of responsibility and connection to nature.

Mitigating Climate Change

Trees absorb carbon dioxide, a major greenhouse gas, from the atmosphere. Planting 5000 trees can absorb significant amounts of CO2, helping to combat climate change. (Illustration)

Each mature tree can absorb approximately 22 kilograms of CO2 per year. Thus, 5000 trees can absorb approximately 110,000 kilograms (110 tonnes) of CO2 annually. 

Trees also release oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis. A mature tree can produce enough oxygen for two people per year. Therefore, 5000 trees can produce enough oxygen for 10,000 people annually.

Local Climate Benefits

Trees provide shade and release water vapor through a process called transpiration, which cools the air. This can reduce temperatures in urban areas, making summers more pleasant.

The presence of 5000 trees can significantly reduce the urban heat island effect, lower energy costs for air conditioning, and provide a more comfortable living environment.
