Tree Equity: NUCFAC project, research scientist at SUNY-ESF, urban and community forestry workshops, high potential communities

In this episode, the Urban ecoMaster introduces the National Urban and Community Forestry Advisory Council (NUCFAC), a 10-year urban forestry action plan for urban environments, was created by the 1990 Farm Bill to bring together the wide variety of voices raised about a common concern: the present health and future preservation of America's urban forests. NUCFAC was founded to synthesize the full spectrum of views into a consistent vision, as a foundation for practical policy on urban forestry and related natural resources. Dr. McDermot explains his role as a research scientist on the NUCFAC project in conducting urban and community forestry workshops in Syracuse, a project that targets High potential communities called Tomorrow's Neighborhood Today (TNT) neighborhood unit. Dr. McDermot highlights the need to become ecologically conscious of our environment of dwelling, playing, and working. This is important to better prepare our communities and our families for the projected heatwaves, drought, floods, and disease and viral outbreaks as climate scenarios worsen. He implores residents to become environmental stewards and repair their neighborhoods by planting trees to fill empty spaces that would otherwise produce heat, hold water, or harbor insects. Please continue to follow the conversation in episode 3.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
