Synopsis

Trees provide many valuable ecosystem services: they reduce energy consumption, they trap and filter stormwater, they help clean the air by intercepting air pollutants, and they help in the fight against global climate change by sequestering carbon dioxide (CO2). At the same time, they provide a wide array of aesthetic, social, economic, and health benefits that are less tangible.
