Free Members’ Webinar: WPC’s Community Forestry Program
July 30, 2020 to August 13, 2020
Event
One of the unsung heroes of a region’s vitality is the community tree canopy. Trees not only act as the world’s lungs, absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen, but they provide shade to cool our cities, increase property values and even deter crime in public areas. Trees also play one of the most important roles in the fight against climate change.
WPC’s Jeff Bergman, director of community forestry and TreeVitalize Pittsburgh, will share how community engagement and investment in maintenance and monitoring efforts are ensuring that Pittsburgh and the surrounding region sustain a vibrant community forest.
Join us to learn more about our community forestry program through which we've planted, with the help of hundreds of volunteers and several partners, more than 37,000 trees across the region since 2008.
