| Direct
and Indirect Benefits of Trees -
As
the industries leading growers and foresters, we are commercially involved with the
planting of tens of millions of forestry trees annually. But it’s now going one stage
further and is accountable for our individual Carbon footprints that will make all our
actions today a beneficial part of tomorrows environment in which we live.
Trees
are effectively the green lungs of our planet, flourishing and growing in stature from CO2
emissions. And with your support and contributions, will develop into new woodlands
/ forests and become the Carbon sinks of the future.
Trees
-
Absorb
more carbon emissions during the early years of growth
One
tree absorbs about approximately 1 tonne of carbon dioxide over its lifetime here in the
UK
Grow
fastest in rainforests where the days are long sunny 365 days of the year
A
tree planted in the rainforest sequesters up to 3 times more carbon than if planted
anywhere else
One
tree will produce enough oxygen for 10 people in a year
Each
persons carbon footprint is about 10 tons of carbon dioxide every year, which amounts to
planting 10 trees every year!
Will
be coppiced in a well managed forest with many benefits when being 'managed' correctly
with the wood used for a vast range of commodities
Direct
tree benefits
Provide
homes for indigenous wildlife havens
Planting
today encourages the return of endangered species
Roots
reduce erosion in rain seasons and dry areas
Replenish
the ground with nutrients from the air such as nitrogen
Provide
organic fertiliser, through the falling of their leaves
They
sustain Eco-system balance and bio-diversity
Create
microclimate conditions for life as we know it to flourish
They
have provided medicines for centuries including for; Malaria, heartburn, measles, lung
diseases, rheumatism, flu, leprosy
They
can produce Berries Nuts and Fruits as Apple, Pear, Plum, Mango, Guava, Papaya, Avocado,
Olive, Lemon,
Provide
a sustainable source of timber used in many a product used daily without a second thought
Indirect
benefits of trees
Improve
living standards
for communities and local people here in the UK and Internationally
Roots
stabilise river banks, reducing the risk of flooding
Rebuild worn soils and improve agricultural productivity
Through
shade and by evaporating moisture from their leaves, trees can reduce daytime temperatures
by about 5 degrees F and buildings by 20 degrees
Cool
the ground temperatures providing shelter from direct sunlight
Attract
bees aiding pollination and the life cycle on earth
Can
act as natural wind breakers, and separate different types of crop farms
