Unlocking the Multiple Benefits of Tree Canopy (Online)
June 24, 2021 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
The County’s Extreme Heat Task Force invites you to a one-hour conversation about “Leveraging data, partnerships, and policy to unlock the multiple benefits of tree canopy” for under-resourced and formerly redlined communities in San Mateo County. Three stellar presenters will showcase a new San Mateo County tree dashboard that will enable jurisdictions to prioritize hyperlocal areas for tree planting, a case study of the partnership between an urban forestry nonprofit and the City of East Palo Alto, and a recent San Francisco Estuary Institute report on the benefits of tree planting as a stormwater management strategy.
