Upcoming NYSDEC ReLeaf Webinars

Public trees and public health – May 11 Webinar, 12pm – 1:15pm

A growing body of scientific research suggests that abundant trees and green space in communities provides important benefits for human health and well-being.  The Green Heart Project in Louisville, Kentucky is one of the largest, long-term initiatives in the U.S. to plant many trees and conduct controlled research on physical and mental health in Louisville.  Join us on May 11 for an overview of the Green Heart Project with a presentation from members of the project team at the University of Kentucky
