Since 1994, we have recycled over 40,000 cubic yards of debris, reused the product on our projects, and reduced the number of raw materials used. This has conserved landfill space the size of a football field, 10 stories high!
Also, we have planted approximately 17,925 trees. One tree can remove 26 pounds of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere annually, equaling 11,000 miles of car emissions. One study showed one acre of trees has the ability to remove 13 tons of particles and gasses annually.
Since our beginnings, we have installed more than 170 million square feet of turf. Reports show that 2,500 square feet of turf absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and releases enough oxygen for a family of four to breathe.
