USANA Goes Green For Arbor Day

SALT LAKE CITY, April 28, 2017

"We are thrilled to have the opportunity to partner with TreeUtah to conserve and beautify our local community," said Gustavo da Silva, USANA corporate sustainability coordinator. "USANA Green is committed to establishing programs and partnerships which provide our employees the opportunity to serve, while working to preserve our environment."

Arbor Day began in 1872 in an effort to bring awareness to the value of trees in our communities and their importance to preserving healthy soil and increasing natural resources. The planting of trees means improved water quality, less runoff and erosion and more recharging of the ground water supply. In addition, trees add value to the community, help to cool neighborhoods, break cold winds and provide food for wildlife.  Each average-sized tree provides an estimated $7 savings in annual environmental benefits, including energy conservation and reduced pollution.  In fact, a single tree can absorb as much carbon in a year as a car produces while driving 26,000 miles.
