Urban Trees: Bringing the Canopy to All
With extreme heat events hitting Canadian cities this summer, urban forests offer crucial relief. Yet, not all city residents have access to shady, cool streets or the other benefits that trees provide. Join us for a three-part webinar series where you'll learn about tree equity, explore how mapping the issue can drive positive change, and discover how to prioritize equity in your tree planting projects. This series aims to inspire action across Canada, empowering you to be part of the solution.
