What is 60,000 trees?

60,000 trees produce enough oxygen to breathe for the entire population of Sopron or Kaposvár.

60,000 trees would cover an area the size of 23 football pitches

60,000 trees will sequester the same amount of carbon dioxide in their lifetime as 37 million cars emit in 1000 kilometres per car.

60,000 trees, when they are big enough, will filter out 150 wagons of dust a year.
