Beat the heat the natural way! 🌳☀🌳☀ As temperatures rise, finding effective ways to stay cool becomes increasingly important. One of the most natural and efficient solutions is right above our heads—trees! Check out these cool folks chilling under the shade of our awesome lime trees in Shirley Park. Trees aren't just pretty to look at, they're like nature's own air conditioners! Here are a few more shady facts about why trees are your best summer buddies. 🌳 Shade, glorious shade! Trees provide a natural canopy that blocks the sun's scorching rays, keeping you cool and comfy on even the hottest days. 🌳 Cooler air, please! Trees release moisture into the air through a process called transpiration, which helps to cool down the surrounding environment. It's like having your own personal misting system! 🌳 Green is serene! Beyond providing shade, trees also improve air quality by absorbing pollutants and releasing oxygen. Breathe easy and stay fresh! So next time you're feeling the heat, remember to thank our leafy friends for their shady services. #TreeLove #BeatTheHeat #StayCool #MoreTreesPlease #Sustainability #UrbanForestry #GreenInfrastructure #ClimateAction

The tropics and subtropics account for slightly less than half of all trees (1.3 trillion), the boreal regions for about one-fourth (0.74 trillion) and the temperate regions about one-fifth of the world’s forests (0.66 trillion). https://lnkd.in/gEgPe7My #climatechange #sustainableinvesting #sustainability #sustainabledevelopment #carbonemissions #carbonreduction #carboncredits #carbonoffset #carbontrading #carbonfootprint #carbonneutral #carbonoffsets #plasticfree #plasticrecycling #plasticfreeoceans #plasticpollution #plasticwaste #eprcertification #epr #plasticcredits #sdgs2030 #sdgsimpact #sdg2030 #esginvesting #esgreporting #esg #esginvestment #esgconsulting #naturebasedsolutions #nbs #naturebasedsolution #greenenergy #greenhousegases #greenhousegasemissions #sustainabledevelopmentgoals #independentevalautionexpert #renewableenergy #renewableenergysources #renewablepower

On our blog: Benefits of Trees in Mitigating Summer Heat Trees provide shade, reducing temperatures on the ground and buildings beneath them. This helps lower the ambient temperature in urban areas, a phenomenon known as the urban heat island effect. We all have sat under trees to take shelter from the heat of the sun during the day, either on a roadside café, within a park or out walking with the dog. It’s notable in the landscape that a bees’ nest or rabbit warren may be under trees and during the day larger animals such as cattle, sheep or even the pet dog settle under the tree. Trees release water vapour through their leaves in a process called transpiration. This release of moisture cools the air, similar to how sweating helps cool the human body. That’s why it feels cooler, and, in many cities, boulevards have trees carefully planted to provide shade.

Lets Talk About The Loss of Wildflowers Wildflowers can be a beautiful addition to our landscapes. But we have lost large tracts of land to development and habitat reduction; insects have reduced accordingly and are in decline. Wildflowers not only support insects they also play a crucial role in carbon capture. Carbon capture is the process by which carbon dioxide (CO2) is removed from the atmosphere and stored in natural sinks like forests, oceans, and soil. Wildflowers absorb carbon dioxide through photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert carbon dioxide and sunlight into energy. During this process, carbon dioxide is absorbed by the plant and transformed into organic matter. This organic matter is then stored in the soil or used by the plant for growth and reproduction. Wildflowers are particularly effective at carbon capture because of their ability to grow in harsh and diverse environments. They have adapted to withstand extreme temperatures, drought, and nutrient-poor soils, making them a resilient and hardy plant species. This adaptability allows wildflowers to grow in areas where other plants struggle, including degraded and disturbed land. https://lnkd.in/e-ZPpKJG #wildflowers #climate #biodiversity #gardening

🪲 Meet the Chrysina limbata, also known as the Silver Chafer Beetle. 🌟 This dazzling beetle is native to Central America and is famous for its stunning reflective silver and gold exoskeleton. 🌳 Belongs to the family Scarabaeidae and is frequently found in the cloud forests of Costa Rica and surrounding regions. 🔍 The vibrant hues of the Silver Chafer Beetle not only make it a joy to behold but also provide camouflage, protecting it from predators. 🌌 These beetles are predominantly active during the night and tend to be attracted to light sources. 🌿 Despite their beauty, they serve a vital role by helping to break down plant material, contributing significantly to the health of their grassland habitats. 📷:MichaelFarmer #Insects #Beetles #Wildlife #Nature #Environment #Biodiversity #Ecosystem #lebaneseACT
