Plant a tree during tomorrow's Washington State Carbon Offset Day
Did you know…
• Since 1973, King County’s urban tree canopy has decreased 40%.
• In one year, 100 trees are able to convert 5 tons of CO2 into oxygen.
• One acre of trees can absorb the CO2 produced by driving your car 26,000 miles.
• Just one 80-foot beech tree can remove the CO2 generated by two households in a day.
• Over a 50-year period, one tree provides $62,000 worth of air pollution control.
I learned these all important facts listed above, when I looked at the Live Earth website earlier today.
Tomorrow is your chance to help decrease carbon emissions by volunteering to plant a tree in one of Seattle/Eastside’s parks. Governor Gregoire has declared tomorrow, November 10th, to be the first Carbon Offset Day.
This website will give you all the places where events are happening.
