Evidence supports the connection between nature & health. The benefits of #trees 🌳 range from lowered heart rates to reduced stress. This #ArborDay, we are proud to collaborate with other #FundingUrbanForestry recipients to improve our communities. #UrbanArborDay #urbanforests
Here’s a fun fact for #ArborDay: Did you know tree canopy cover can reduce temps by 11-19 degrees Fahrenheit compared to communities with no tree cover? Planting #trees helps combat dangerous heat islands in our cities. #urbanforests #FundingUrbanForestry fs.usda.gov/managing-land/…
Thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act and @forestservice, we're partnering with these cities to enhance tree-planting efforts and nature-based solutions. Together, we're creating healthier, more equitable, and climate-resilient communities. #UrbanForestry #ClimateAction
It's #ArborDay! Today we're thrilled to announce $4.5 million in funding for urban forestry initiatives in Chandler, Mesa, Concord, Auburn, and Salem! More here: tpl.org/?post_type=new…

This #EarthDay, give kids of all ages the recess they deserve. Our Community Schoolyards® projects are a low-cost, effective way to make neighborhoods climate resilient. Bonus: they make recess cooler, safer, and more fun. Learn more 🔗 bit.ly/3TXslJH
As #ClimateChange threatens communities nationwide with dangerously high temperatures and growing flood risks, public #schoolyards have emerged as important infrastructure in the quest to make individual neighborhoods and our entire country more resilient. tpl.org/blog/3-ways-sc…
Preschoolers with access to nature had fewer symptoms of anxiety & depression according to a major @NIH-funded study out this week in @JAMANetworkOpen. This is further evidence of the powerful connection between nature & health! (1/2)
100%. Time spent in nature is proven to reduce stress, relieve symptoms of anxiety and depression, and boost cognition, attention, and sleep quality. Green spaces also give communities vital places to gather together, strengthening social ties and lessening isolation.

Heat. Wildfires. Floods. Droughts. Our healthcare system is grappling with the impacts of #ClimateChange on human health. @tpl_org’s Pooja Tandon was honored to speak at @uwearthlab’s recent symposium on how access to nature can support the health of our children & our planet.
Terrific analysis by @WstrnPriorities. TPL is proud to contribute some of the underlying data for reports like this. Tracking public spending and conservation across the country helps communities set goals and remain accountable. Read the report here: westernpriorities.org/wp-content/upl…
📰Check out this report by @city_health & @tpl_org. It serves as a roadmap for city leaders to tap into Greenspace policies to help improve #health outcomes throughout communities by tackling the #equity divide that has existed for years.
