The study reveals that heavy metals and particulate matter influence tree development by changing the optical properties of the leaf surface. “In this way, they increase temperature and reduce light availability for plant photosynthesis.

Fresno

With its dense foliage and rapid growth, ash is a popular choice for planting in urban areas and city parks. In addition to its aesthetic function, ash also helps improve air quality by absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen.

climate change

• Trees absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere, so cutting them down releases stored carbon and increases the amount of greenhouse gases.

Soil erosion

Forests form and retain soils, preventing erosion.

The felling of trees, or deforestation, has a significant environmental impact on the planet, among which are:

• Air pollution
• Loss of biodiversity
• Desertification

Infectious diseases

Deforestation can create conditions for the emergence of deadly pathogens, such as the Nipah and Lassa viruses, and the parasites that cause malaria and Lyme disease.

Desertification and water shortage

Deforestation leads to desertification and water scarcity.

We want trees around us because they make our lives more pleasant. Most of us respond to the presence of trees not only by admiring their beauty. In a grove of trees we feel serene, calm, restful and peaceful; we feel at home. In hospitals, patients recover more quickly from surgery when they can see trees from their rooms.

Palo verde

Palo verde is also prized for its hard and durable wood, which is used in the manufacture of furniture and handicrafts.

Laurel de la india

In addition to its aesthetic appeal, this tree is also known for its ability to purify the air and reduce noise pollution.

Loss of biodiversity

Forests are the habitat of millions of species, so their deforestation causes the loss of their habitat.

For a large number of animals, trees are a source of food or a place for breeding, protection or shelter. In return, wild animals contribute to the energy flows of the ecosystem as an important part of the food chain and disseminate their pollen and seeds.

Magnolia

Its exuberant leaves and imposing flowers add a touch of elegance to the streets and parks of Guadalajara, offering an oasis of serenity in the midst of the urban bustle.

Tabachin

With its striking green foliage that expands like an umbrella and its flowers ranging from deep red to vibrant yellow, the tabachin adds a touch of beauty and cheerfulness to the city. In addition to its attractive appearance, tabachin also attracts a wide variety of birds and butterflies, making it a true nature lover's paradise.

Trees alter the environment in which we live by moderating the climate, improving air quality, conserving water, and providing shelter for wildlife. Climate control is achieved by moderating the effects of sun, wind and rain. The sun's radiant energy is absorbed or deflected by the leaves of deciduous trees during the summer, and filtered only by the branches of those same trees in the winter. We feel cooler when we are shaded by trees and not exposed to direct sunlight.

Trees in cities often serve a variety of architectural or engineering functions. They provide privacy, emphasize views or obscure unpleasant ones. They reduce intense light and unwanted or distracting glare. Direct pedestrian traffic. Provide views, or soften, complement or enhance architecture.

Ocote blanco

In addition to its beauty, the ocote pine also has a significant economic value, since its wood is used in construction and furniture manufacturing, so it is important to preserve it and encourage reforestation with this specimen.
