Trees offer environmental and landscape value to any home While we often plant them to beautify our gardens, trees improve air quality, reduce heating and cooling bills, and enhance property values. Trees not only absorb carbon dioxide and other dangerous gases from the air, but trees planted along urban streets absorb noise and reduce streetlevel particulate readings. Strategically placed trees on your property can produce energy savings all year round. During the summer deciduous trees provide shade that can reduce air-conditioning costs while allowing more sunlight through in the winter season to help heat your home. Evergreens planted on the north and west sides of your home create a barrier from winter winds, aiding with heating costs, too. Soil and stream erosion from wind and storm water runoff, can be reduced or prevented by planting trees. The impact of diverting water running off paved surfaces into our sewer systems is lessen by trees, which help water to return to underground natural water tables. Property value is known to increase when you plant a tree in your garden. Homes located near green spaces and parks will have enhanced property values compared to those homes where concrete is the dominant landscape.
