Guy in yellow is 32, and mentally disabled as a result of severe child abuse. He came home at 14 and found his parents had left, abandoning him. He lived alone for 6 months. When the guy at the gate found out, he took him in with his family and has taken care of him ever since.

Through our urban forestry program, nearly 5,000 trees planted will sequester 25,000 tons of CO2 over the trees’ lifecycle. Planted primarily in disadvantaged communities, the trees help offset emissions generated during construction. hsr.ca.gov/programs/green_pr…

What if we told you that there are carbon sequestering, air filtering, water cleaning, eco-friendly green machines that could even replace your air conditioner? It’s #trees! 🌲 Have you ever planted trees to make your home more efficient?💡 pc: Max Rive Photography

Back in the 1970s, Costa Rica’s #deforestation rates were among the world’s worst. Today, the country regenerates about 7 times more #trees than it cuts down! 🌳 👏 🙏 bit.ly/2uXbeyr

Dr. Christy Brigham, Chief of Resource Management and Science at @SequoiaKingsNPS, was interviewed by The Guardian to discuss findings from a new study on the recent deaths of giant sequoias in the Sierra Nevada. theguardian.com/environment/…
'This is not how sequoias die. It’s supposed to stand for another 500 years'

'This is not how sequoias die. It’s supposed to stand for another 500 years'

Giant sequoias were thought to be immune to insects, drought and wildfires. Then the unthinkable happened: trees started to die – and scientists began the search for answers

It isn’t a matter of when people will start dying from extreme heat, it’s a matter of how many. In the era of climate change, unless we turn this ship around, it will only get worse. Much, much worse. bit.ly/2UeS0wH

Check out this great piece by @CatWisePDX 👇It’s clear park access is a public health solution for the benefit of kids & families. The critical path forward is advocating for programs & resources to connect kids to parks especially for those who face greater barriers. @calparks
