RPM Ecosystems in the news

More than 100,000 native Mississippi trees soak up the sunshine at Young's Native Plant Nursery in Vancleave. The South Mississippi business is working with RPM Ecosystems, a New York based nursery, which has a patented process for growing native trees naturally and quickly.

"Living on the coast, I know that we lost a lot of our canopy. And then the trees just take a long time to grow," said nursery owner Gary Young. "So, hopefully, using this new type of tree they'll produce a lot faster and get our canopy going." Read More »

and Patrick Brennen from the USDA shared a few words with the crowd. The ceremonial tree planting took place the next morning due to weather complications.


RPM Ecosystems joined Al Gore at the University of Buffalo

RPM Ecosystems joined Al Gore at the University of Buffalo at the BU Enviro Fair on April 27th. The alumni arena was filled twice that day with high school and college students, faculty, staff and community members for Al Gore's both alarming and inspiring "take action now" informative presentation on Global Warming. The back of the stage was filled with RPM trees.

The fair was organized by UB Green and Re-Tree WNY. Gore's lecture was part of BU's Distinguished Speaker Series, and the signature event of UB's "Greener Shade of Blue" initiative to raise awareness about climate change and celebrate the university's decades-long commitment to environmental stewardship. More than a dozen businesses and organizations participated in the Enviro Fair in an effort to provide lecture goers with the opportunity to "go green" and take home environmental solutions recommended by Gore.

RPM was one of the environmental solutions selling trees retail to the Buffalo community who lost so many thousands in the October 2006 snow storm. We will continue to work with Re-Tree WNY to help recover and restore Buffalo from its massive tree loss.
