Texas Trees Foundation’s Post

Texas Trees is thrilled to announce a new member to our Green Team. Welcome Ryan!

Texas Trees is excited to partner with Texas A&M Forest Service and the Fort Worth ISD to provide residents with free tree seedlings. Although small now, with proper care these trees will provide much-needed shade, cleaner air, and lower energy costs for generations to come! While picking up your tree, take a few minutes to learn about the emerald ash borer, and how you can help to monitor and protect neighborhood ash trees from this devastating pest. 🌳 Fort Worth Parks Dept Fort Worth ISD Family Action Center #urbanforest #summer

As we wrap up our #embracetheshade summer social media campaign, we wanted to highlight the City of Dallas Urban Heat Island Mapping Study, a citizen science volunteer study that our team at Texas Trees Foundation was invited to collaborate on last month! 🌡️🌇🗺️ To complement the City of Dallas's data collection of air temperatures across the entire city, our team at Texas Trees Foundation collected surface temperature readings at four sites across the City — covering a variety of different environments; from developed, urban areas to protected greenspace; and corresponding to places of interest to our projects and programs, including the Southwestern Medical District and South Dallas. We wanted to share a special thank you to the @CityofDallas for inviting the Foundation to participate as collaborators in the study. Stay tuned for a public release of the results from the City of Dallas later this year. Use the following link https://ow.ly/t0EW50ToaW7 to read a blog post recapping our participation in the event!
