The Humble Lawn ; It's an environmental
Champion!
How would you like to reduce your cooling costs & help the environment at the same time?
Did you know an average size home lawn has the cooling effect of about 9 tones of air conditioning & on a hot day a lawn will be at least 15 degrees cooler than asphalt &
8 degrees cooler than bare soil.
Pollution absorption is another benefit of having lawn. Turf grass absorbs effervescent pollutants from the atmosphere, such as carbon dioxide & sulphur dioxide, converting them into oxygen for us to breathe.
58m2 of lawn will provide you with enough oxygen for the entire day.
Turf is great for allergy control, trapping pollen from plants as well as an estimated 12 million tones of dust & dirt released into the atmosphere annually a processes that cleans the air & helps us to breathe easy.
Thick grass can help prevent soil erosion, reducing run off & it filters the water that helps recharge our groundwater supplies. |
