Welcome to Green Tree Planet!
Who would benefit from Green Tree Planet?
The Planet
Trees, like all plants, take in carbon dioxide and give off oxygen. Trees soften architecture, define our outdoor spaces and provide habitat to a number of creatures. By moving trees from the growers into our green spaces we improve our condition both mentally and physically.
Green Spaces
In these hard economic times Parks, Schools, and other open green spaces have cut their budgets severely. One of the first areas to be cut are shade tree improvement and replacement. An organization that would donate and install shade trees would be a huge relief to these institutions. The public would ultimately benefit the most by having trees added to our open green spaces.
Shade Tree Nursery Growers
Shade tree nursery growers have also been hit pretty hard with the downturn in the construction industry. Several have bulldozed their fields to grow food crops to pay the bills, and a few have even been forced to sell their land to developers. An organization that could buy and/or provide tax relief for trees would be welcome help for tree growers.
