Idyllwild Earth Fair 2007 "Awakening A Sense of Wonder"

       The impact of just one tree affects you, our planet, our future. ONE TREE WILL:

• Absorb more than a ton of carbon over its lifetime.

•  Improve water quality by slowing and filtering rain and protecting aquifers and watersheds.

•   Remove carbon dioxide pollution from the air. ..            

• One acre removes 2.6 tons of CO2 per year

•  Produces nearly 260 pounds of oxygen per year…

•  Two mature trees can provide oxygen for a family of four!

• Control $31,500 worth of soil erosion over 50 years.
