Oakland County Planting Nearly 500 Trees on Government Campus While Reducing Fleet Fuel Consumption as Earth Day Approaches [ [link removed] ]

"04/18/2024 1:43 PM"

Pontiac, Mich. ? Oakland County is taking strides toward a greener, more sustainable government campus with the planting of about 500 trees this spring. When these trees mature, on average, each will remove 48 pounds of carbon dioxide a year from the atmosphere, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. That?s the potential to absorb nearly 12 tons of carbon dioxide annually.

In addition, the county successfully decreased its fleet fuel consumption by an impressive 123,000 gallons in 2023. The fuel savings averted the release of 2.46 million pounds of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. In comparison, the world released 2.57 million pounds of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere every second in 2023, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration website. ________________________________________________________________________
