Pepco and the Arbor Day Foundation are working together to promote tree plantings, a cause the National Cherry Blossom Festival is committed to. Planting trees is an excellent way to beautify your home while reducing energy use, and Pepco is giving away 3,000 trees to customers in the Washington, DC area. Residents in DC and Prince George’s county, Maryland, can receive two free trees and have them delivered directly by signing up online. Did you know that simply by planting trees, you can save up to 20% on your utility bills? Find out how much you can save by using Arbor Day Foundation’s online calculator. Trees help reduce energy by providing shade in the summer and blocking winds in the winter. They help purify air, reduce stormwater buildup, and carbon in the atmosphere. |
