Moroccan Village in Addison Sustainability Tip of the Week Planting trees provides a multitude of benefits. To name just a few, trees provide shade in the summer and wind breaks in the winter, reducing energy consumption. A building can stay up to 20 degrees cooler in the summer with the help of tree shade. That means you don’t have to turn on the fan or the air conditioning as frequently. Trees prevent or reduce soil erosion and help recharge ground water. And, for every ton of new wood that grows, about 1.5 tons of carbon dioxide is removed from the air and 1.07 tons of life-giving oxygen is produced. Trees create 40 percent of the world’s oxygen. Trees provide human food (nuts, fruit and syrup) as well as habitat for wildlife. They also add beauty and grace to communities, and are a source of public pride.
