Help Save The Environment: Rubbersidewalks
I am SO excited about this product! Rubbersidewalks just makes so much sense to me! It’s all WIN-WIN!
Rubbersidewalks save trees that might otherwise have to be removed, and trees, we all know, are very good for the environment. But just in case you haven’t heard…
Trees convert carbon dioxide to oxygen and help remove pollutants, resulting in better air and water quality.
Trees provide shade and cut cooling costs. According to the Department of Agriculture, the net cooling effect of a young, healthy tree is equivalent to ten room-size air conditioners operating 20 hours a day. Four trees planted around your home can save you up to 30% on cooling costs. One million trees would save this consumers ten million a year in energy costs and help eliminate much of the dangerous emissions that are damaging our ozone.
Trees help our wildlife and they help our quality of life as well, lending beauty and serenity to an area, not to mention raising real estate values. Healthy, mature trees add an average of ten percent to a property’s value.
Rubbersidewalks also help the environment by keeping tires out of the landfills. Rubbersidewalks are made of 100% California tire rubber. A square foot of Rubbersidewalks uses the rubber of one entire tire. 400 square feet keeps over two tons of waste tire rubber from going into landfill.
Rubbersidewalks are also budget friendly. Panels are easy to remove and replace for tree root inspection and maintenance, unlike concrete sidewalks which must be torn out and replaced. Rubbersidewalks can also save you expensive litigation from falls and injuries due to cracked damaged walks. Rubbersidewalks will not crack due to freezing or tree roots. Roots actually respond differently to Rubbersidewalks than concrete.
And lastly, Rubbersidewalks are just a really appealing product. They are safe and nontoxic. They absorb sound and percussion, making for a more pleasant walking experience. They are very attractive and available in many colors and textures.
