Large urban trees are excellent filters for urban pollutants and fine particulates. One tree can absorb up to 150 kg of CO2 per year, sequester carbon and consequently mitigate climate change. Trees provide habitat, food and protection to plants and animals, increasing urban biodiversity. Planting trees today is essential for future generations!

Τα μεγάλα αστικά δέντρα αποτελούν φίλτρα για τους αστικούς ρύπους και τα λεπτά σωματίδια. Ένα δέντρο μπορεί να απορροφήσει έως και 150 κιλά CO 2 ετησίως, να δεσμεύσει τον άνθρακα και συνεπώς να αμβλύνει την κλιματική αλλαγή. Τα δέντρα παρέχουν ενδιαίτημα, τροφή και προστασία για τα φυτά και τα ζώα, αυξάνοντας την αστική βιοποικιλότητα.
