i-Tree Tools

If you are attending the Partners in Community Forestry conference, please let me know, I would love to meet you and absorb more knowledge on all things urban+ecology+equity+etc. Please PM me :-) Also please visit the i-Tree Tools half day indoor field tour on Wednesday, November 20 from 12:30 - 4:30pm. Partners working in India and Vietnam will be joining me and our Davey partners there. Learn more about what they are doing with respect to how they are using i-Tree in their work and the amazing collaboration that it has inspired with communities.

The power of a street tree is both subtle and profound. While it may not possess the raw strength of a towering skyscraper or the force of a rushing river, its impact on urban environments is immense in its own right. 🌳 Environmental impact 🌳 Community benefits 🌳 Economic value 🌳 Biodiversity development 🌳 Long-term sustainability While a street tree may seem small and unassuming, its power lies in its ability to positively transform urban environments in multifaceted ways. Because a tree can be impactful, connecting communities and creating a healthier planet for generations to come.

Street trees deserve a round of applause. They: 🚶♀️ Separate us from the roadways 🚙 Encourage slower driving ☀️ Cool our cities ☁️ Absorb pollution 🌸 Offer so much beauty

#TreePlanting is hard work - and it doesn't end once the trees are in the ground. Tree maintenance is especially important in the first few years of their establishment to improve chances of survival. The Baltimore Tree Trust is an organization that is committed to giving newly planted trees their best shot at maturity with their two-year tree care warranty. Using i-Tree Planting (https://lnkd.in/gBakzNHF), they calculated the long-term environmental benefits of the trees that survived under their care to showcase how their initial investment pays off!

Congratulations to Pius Floris Boomverzorging for leading an extremely successful #EUTreeTag campaign! 👏 Together with their partners, over 700 trees were tagged with a poster illustrating the #ecosystemservices trees provide as calculated by i-Tree Tools. "By understanding and appreciating the multifaceted benefits of urban trees, we can better advocate for their preservation and integration into urban planning and management that supports their accommodation, protection and conservation for long term growth." Was your city part of the campaign? 👉 https://lnkd.in/eVYcchh2 #iTree #treeplanting #forestry #urbanforestry
