AT: Healthy Trees, Healthy Lives – Texas Children in Nature Webinar

April 17th 2pm. Virtual.   Registration to receive zoom webinar link here.

Texas Children in Nature will host a webinar with Speaker Alison Baylis, Regional Urban Ecologist, Urban & Community Forestry, Texas A&M Forest Service, on the benefit of trees in urban settings and impacts on community health.

Trees in urban environments provide an array of health and well-being benefits that sustain our cities. This webinar will focus on some of those critical benefits and explore the relationship between trees, human health, well-being, and environmental justice in the urban setting. Research has shown that trees offer many benefits that improve human health and well-being. However, those benefits are often not equally distributed, resulting in different levels of benefits between neighborhoods with more tree cover compared to those with less.
