In addition to knowledge-building, a specialized squad of arborists and experts named \u2018Forest Rescue Team\u2019 also explored the city to gather information, tend trees, or\u2014if needed\u2014move them from their original locations to a well-prepared sanctuary at THE FORESTIAS, where 3 rai (4,800 sqm) has been designated as an extensive natural ecosystem for the project.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/propholic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/200672edit.jpg\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-136819\" src=\"https:\/\/propholic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/200672edit.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"675\" height=\"1200\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>For the past six months, THE FORESTIAS by MQDC has informed consumers nationwide, with a focus on the 10 million Thais living and working in the capital, about the value and importance of natural ecosystems. An analysis of 500 trees secured by Forest Rescue Team has revealed that most are large trees including varieties of raintree, blackboard tree, framire, tamarind, and mango aged 5\u201310 years. These large trees, as well as trees in general, can return useful benefits whether directly or indirectly to other living beings in the ecosystem. The process of photosynthesis allows trees to absorb harmful gases\u2014such as carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen oxides\u2014while oxygen, a crucial gas for human survival, is then released as a byproduct. Based on the average oxygen production of a well-established tree at 200,000\u2013250,000 l per year, the saved trees currently planted at THE FORESTIAS can together generate 100\u2013125 million l of oxygen. This amount of oxygen would be consumed by 1,000 adults over one year.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Amid ongoing concern over the harmful dust and smog containing PM2.5 particulates that are plaguing Bangkok and other areas around the world, trees moved from risky locations Bangkok-wide to THE FORESTIAS can consume up to 700 kg of hazardous particulates, based on the annual dust absorption by a strong tree of about 1.4 kg. These statistics align with figures from the United States Environmental Protection Agency, which has found that trees can reduce the severity of metropolitan smog, as particulates detected in areas with large trees are 7\u201324% lower than in areas with no large, strong trees. The process of transpiration, moreover, releases moisture to the environment bringing down average temperature. A study published in \u2018Atmospheric Environment\u2019 journal in 2017 further indicates that large trees, despite their power to take in polluted gases, contribute most in open spaces. For congested zones like cities, bushes may be the best natural solution to trap exhaust from vehicles, since large trees are too tall to capture harmful particulates.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Trees conserved by the Forest Rescue project will be nurtured to recover to full health and form a foundation for over 30,000 new trees grown from seed under an eco-forest concept to complete \u201cForest at THE FORESTIAS\u201d, an urban forest spanning across 30 rai (48,000 sqm) with a section accessible to the public once the project is completed. This part of the metropolitan forest will form a public park where people can rest or observe nature. It should also release 6\u20137.5 billion l of oxygen, take in 420,000 kg of particulates, and reduce heat around the project by 2\u20134 \u030aC.<\/p>\n","show_on_feature":true,"short_description":"Magnolia Quality Development Corporation Limited (MQDC)\u2014a company with proven excellence in investing in, developing, and managing highly-regarded residential and mixed-use projects including \u201cTHE FORESTIAS\u201d\u2014today sums up the success of the \u201cForest Rescue\u201d campaign to save trees in and around Bangkok.
