SUMMARY:Trees as a Public Good Network meeting
DESCRIPTION:Trees-as-a-Public-Good (AKA TreesPG) holds networking meetings on the first and third Thursdays at 7 PM on Zoom. We plan legislative means to protect trees\, at both the state and local levels\, and discuss what actions can be taken to address specific trees under threat. \nJOIN THE TREES-AS-A-PUBLIC-GOOD NETWORK Please fill out this short form to get the Zoom link and join the TreesPG Network. The form is sponsored by Our Revolution MA (ORMA). \nTrees-as-a-Public-Good Network Overview \nTrees as a Public Good (TreesPG) is a network of organizations and individuals committed to preserving and expanding Massachusetts’ tree canopy.\nThe preservation and expansion of tree canopy is a crucial step in mitigating the global warming crisis due to fossil fuel use. Trees are the lungs of the planet\, constantly sequestering carbon from the atmosphere. A robust tree canopy also is fundamental to preserving ecosystems and biodiversity\, and to public health\, including reducing urban heat islands. \nTrees PG focuses on all trees\, in municipalities and forests and on public or private land through education and activism. We serve as a forum for organizations and concerned residents to gain support and develop collaborations to monitor local and state-level plans that advocate the preservation and expansion of Commonwealth tree canopy and oppose unwarranted tree removals and losses. We also coordinate sign-on letters and action alerts that address local/state legislative and administrative processes related to the tree canopy. Going forward\, we plan to develop a database of municipal and state tree oversight processes\, activities\, and best practices in order to promote better legislation and regulations related to trees in light of the climate emergency. \nThe Network convened in Spring 2022 after a forum on trees sponsored by the Climate Crisis working group of Our Revolution Massachusetts (ORMA): A Livable Commonwealth: Trees as a Public Good. \nThe Network meets on Zoom and is open to all who support its purpose.
