Did you see that the United States just shut down a national tree-planting initiative that helped communities mitigate increasing heat, flooding, and climate collapse across the country? With heat intensifying each summer, and government support drying up, our work together just became even more urgent. Areas without trees will be sweltering as concrete and asphalt soak up the sun and reflect back heat. Learn more about how our Miyawaki Forest Program is helping local community groups to plant these dense, biodiverse forests in the schoolyards, vacant lots, and urban heat islands that need them most.
