The environmental importance of trees is great. Trees play a vital role in the continuation of human and wild life on our planet. The following lists just ten points to show the importance of trees:

1. Add beauty and interest to the environment;

2. Feed people and wildlife through their body parts, such as bark for tea and such as their drupes, fruits, nuts, and seeds;

3. Feed the soil food web with their exudates, or waste products;

4. Hold soil together with their roots;

5. Inspire art and literature with their colors, shapes and textures;

6. Offer shelter from heat, moisture and temperature extremes;

7. Provide homes for wildlife and building supplies, home furnishings and tree houses to people;

8. Release oxygen into the atmosphere;

9. Remove carbon dioxide and pollutants from air through their phytoremediating tendencies;

10. Challenge people and wildlife to be physically fit by the opportunities for climbing branches.
