The 544-ha FRIM (Forest Research Institute of Malaysia) woodland in Kepong, Kuala Lumpur houses 116 or 9% of Malaysia’s threatened plant species, and has over 350,000 plant specimens, some of which date back to the 1880s. On top of this, it hosts over 200 bird species, including hornbills and kingfishers, as well as wild boars, squirrels and monkeys. FRIM is now vying for UNESCO World Heritage status. Ironically, the forest is entirely man-made - it is basically the largest and most successful tropical rainforest restoration project in the world on what had been a wasteland of tin mines and vegetable farms, starting from British colonial times in the 1910s until today. This success story is even more pertinent in our age of natural habitat destruction and massive carbon emissions which cause climate change - it can serve as a role model for tropical and other countries around the world seeking to restore their forests. https://lnkd.in/gATp6qdi

Cultural institutions leader. 🌱 I help nonprofits and nonprofit people craft and achieve their ambitious goals.
I'm so excited to see the emphasis on #greensolutions to #climatemitigation and the recognition that disparities in tree canopy quantity and quality are an #environmentaljustice and #socialjustice issue. Purchasing and planting trees is only the beginning. Sustaining these Cooling Corridors also means: -building a seed supply and #plantnursery industry that can produce #native and regionally adapted saplings to fuel regional #biodiversity initiatives, -investing in #arborists, #urbanforesters, #treewardens, and #horticulturists who ultimately dictate the quality and quantity of our urban tree canopies, and - working with #architects #landscapearchitects, #gardendesigners, #landscapemanagers, and other professionals to develop a new native design aesthetic and technical specs to support long-lived canopies that age gracefully while minimizing long-term maintenance costs. We can do it!
In addition to keeping our communities cool, planting trees in neighborhoods can increase property values by 20% and drastically reduce the time homes spend on the market! Our new Cooling Corridors program will plant more trees in environmental justice communities across the state.
