Acerca de It's In Denver's Nature

Welcome to the ‘It’s In Denver’s Nature’ podcast—a mini-series that will explore the ways in which the City and County of Denver is creating a more resilient parks and recreation system that can support the health of a growing city while investing in the fight against climate change. From conserving water, transforming landscapes, growing the urban canopy and protecting habitats, to instilling the spirit of environmental stewardship in Denverites of all ages, we are doing our part to make Denver more resilient for the future. We must. It’s in our nature.

Urban Canopy

The final episode of It’s In Denver’s Nature features the urban forest and the many benefits it provides to the city’s environment—storm water management and slowing down rainfall runoff, combatting urban heat island by cooling air temperature, reducing air pollution, and adding beauty to our community along with economic value. Joined by Denver’s City Forester, The Park People, and Denver’s Office of Climate Action, Sustainability and Resiliency, this episode also covers the history of Denver’s urban forest and how it was established by the city’s early settlers and leaders who brought trees from other areas to create shade in our prairie landscape. As we look toward the future, trees will continue to be an important supporter of our physical health and mental wellbeing; and are a key tool in nature-based solutions that mitigate climate vulnerabilities in Denver including air quality, drought, flood, extreme weather, and heat. The group also discusses data sources, technology, and management strategies, including leveraging partnerships to plant trees and educate the community on how they can contribute to growing and protecting the urban forest.

The City and County of Denver actively stewards 6,000+ acres of parkland, more than half of which is open space and natural areas ranging from waterways to large expanses of restored prairie. Watch and learn about the many different species of urban wildlife that call Denver parks home, and how these habitats are beneficial to the humans that recreate in them.
