Partnering for Reforestation in the Pacific Northwest

At Specialty Group, we are always looking for opportunities where we can promote the health of our environment whether it is indoor air or the air that we breath we when enjoy the great outdoors. Recently, we partnered with One Tree Planted, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to global reforestation. Through this partnership, we will be planting a tree on your behalf in the National Forests of the Pacific Northwest.

Understanding Air Quality and the Vital Role of Trees

Air quality has a direct impact on our overall health and quality of life. Just like how radon has been known to lead to lung cancer, air-pollution can also increase your chances of respiratory infection, lung cancer, or cardiovascular disease. Trees not only produce more oxygen for us to breathe, but they can also kill off other pollutants that are in the air. Fun Fact: For every ton of new tree growth, about 1.5 tons of CO2 is removed from the air and 1.07 tons of oxygen is produced.

Replanting Hope

We have decided to have our trees planted in the National Forests in the Pacific Northwest in order to continue supporting the local areas as well as help rebuild after wildfires which have affected us personally in the area. For more information, check out the video linked below!

As always, thank you for choosing Specialty Insulation for your home heating and cooling needs.
