The Value of Trees to a Community
The following are some statistics on just how important trees are in a community setting.
?The net cooling effect of a young, healthy tree is equivalent to ten room-size air conditioners operating 20 hours a day.??U.S. Department of Agriculture
?Landscaping can reduce air conditioning costs by up to 50 percent, by shading the windows and walls of a home.? ? American Public Power Association
?If you plant a tree today on the west side of your home, in 5 years your energy bills should be 3% less. In 15 years the savings will be nearly 12%.? ?Dr. E. Greg McPherson, Center for Urban Forest Research
?A mature tree can often have an appraised value of between $1,000 and $10,000.? ?Council of Tree and Landscape Appraisers
?In one study, 83% of realtors believe that mature trees have a ?strong or moderate impact? on the salability of homes listed for under $150,000; on homes over $250,000, this perception increases to 98%.? ?Arbor National Mortgage & American Forests
