THE HOME IS THE FASTEST AND BEST PLACE TO OFFSET CARBON EMISSIONS, URBAN FORESTS ARE MORE EFFICIENT THAN OTHER FORESTS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD...

URBAN FORESTS AND ECONOMICS
First impressions mean everything.  Trees are a great way to increase curb appeal and a community look.  Visitors are more likely to stop and look around with the appearance of trees, shade, and a homely look.  Urban Forests can show pride and community spirit. Studies show:

• “Trees enhance community economic stability by attracting businesses and tourism.”
• “People linger and shop longer along tree-lined streets.”
• “Apartments and offices in wooded areas rent more quickly and have higher occupancy rates.”
• “Businesses leasing office space in developments with trees find their workers are more productive and absenteeism is reduced.” (11)
