“Having a partner such as Apache Corporation donate trees guarantees an impact in the communities where they are planted and takes on a large portion of the direct costs associated with these plantings,” said Taylor Britt, Houston Wilderness senior director of collaborative grants “The long-term impact of these trees is astounding -- they can remove particulate matter from the air, absorb water, store carbon, reduce urban heating impacts, decrease energy costs and provide shade to buildings. We really appreciate that the Apache Tree Grant Program guarantees the trees are going to be delivered, which provides an incredible benefit to the community.”
