Editorial: Jacksonville s advocates for trees
Our view
You may be seeing public infrastructure projects popping up around Jacksonville. This has nothing to do with roads or sewers. It’s about trees.
Trees are an important part of the green infrastructure of the city, helping reduce air pollution, manage stormwater and provide shade.
Trees are an increasingly important tool for the city as it addresses resiliency issues like sunny day flooding and sea level rise.
And studies find that exposure to trees has health benefits such as stress reduction and helping create a sense of community.
Jacksonville is lucky to have strong tree advocates.
