Benefits of Trees: Our last post discussed trees’ ability to cut air conditioning costs—naturally! With that cut comes a net reduction in emissions, but only if heat usage (in the wintertime) doesn’t spike as a result. Planting dense-canopied, evergreen trees on your property can dampen harsh winter winds, meaning less energy used to heat your home. Planting deciduous trees in tandem with hearty evergreens can have benefits year-round. In the wintertime, the deciduous trees will shed their leaves, allowing solar radiation to enter your home. In the summer, their canopies will shade your home! (fb)
