Why are Trees important?Why are Trees important?*Trees are like the lungs of the planet. They breathe
in carbon dioxide and breathe out oxygen. Additionally, they provide habitat for birds and other wildlife
**CO2 is one of the major contributing elements to the greenhouse effect. Trees trap CO2 from the atmosphere and make carbohydrates that are used for plant growth. They give us oxygen in return.
*Mature trees can absorb roughly 48 pounds of CO2 a year. The tree in
turn releases enough oxygen to sustain two human beings.
Jaisree of Grade V gave useful tips.
*In the winter, trees can act as windbreaks for your home and will help you save on heating costs. The Journal of Horticulture claims that saving on heating costs can reach as much as 25 percent!
*Trees shade buildings, streets, and homes. If enough *Trees shade buildings, streets, and homes. If enough trees are planted in cities, the overall microclimate trees are planted in cities, the overall microclimate improves and total energy use for heating and cooling improves and total energy use for heating and cooling is reduced.is reduced.
*Trees also absorb sound and reduce noise pollution. This is especially important for people who live near freeways. In some cases, a well planted group of trees can reduce noise pollution by up to 10 decibels
*Trees are the biggest mother who helps us to be alive.
