Tree Summit 2021: Water And A Healthy Urban Forest
Today, LA s City Forest Officer, Rachel Malarich, Councilmembers, a Public Works Commissioner, Streets LA executives and staff, and tree experts met online to examine the relationship between water and LA s urban forest. Mayor Eric Garcetti provided recorded opening remarks reaffirming that shade is an equity issue and highlighting how trees are the centerpiece of our vision for a green and just Los Angeles. Trees breathe new life into our communities ― bringing cooler temperatures, cleaning our air, and making our neighborhoods more beautiful places to lay down roots and raise a family,” said Mayor Eric Garcetti. When we invest in tree planting, we are doing more than adding greenery and shade to our neighborhoods we’re building a healthier city and strengthening communities hardest hit by the climate crisis.
