Western Rim Property Services, founded by Marcus Hiles of Dallas, develops communities designed to act in harmony with the environment and to reflect the natural beauty of their surroundings. “My goal for every building project is to increase the tree canopy over its pre-developed state,” Hiles offers. Over 3,000 trees have been planted by the company in the past year, each of which sequesters an average of 48 pounds of carbon dioxide annually. “Not only do trees beautify our communities, but they help to reduce the earth’s temperature and absorb pollutants while releasing oxygen,” he adds. Trees placed near building also can trim the need for air conditioning and heating by 30 percent or more.
