OpenStreetMap has nearly 21 million individual trees mapped all throughout the world, but that data is highly localized and unevenly mapped. I was curious to see which countries have mapped more trees than we might expect, so decided to try comparing trees to area.

#Brooklyn! @V6A_coLab and @land_interact are looking for people who have tree pits or sidewalk strips in front of their rentals or property that they would like to re-wild for increasing biodiversity and stormwater control. If this is you, form info → ayq5slpuj0t.typeform.com/to/Itpmney1

Great reporting from L.A., where city officials say they spend about $1,850 to procure and plant a single street tree — half of what it costs in NYC. Then they spend another $2,500 for their crews to allegedly hand water that tree for the next five years citywatchla.com/index.php/neig…

can datasets have bdays? 7 yrs ago on #ArborDay, together with @TreeKIT @azavea @uvmvermont's SAL, @NYCParks launched the 2015 street tree census, a citizen mapping project with 2,200+ volun-treers and 60+ community groups.

In the last week I've started to receive inquiries from people running tree planting programs wanting my help. I am suggesting that they shut down their programs. Here I will explain why:

This is interesting— have u heard of the “3-30-300 rule?” 3: Everyone should be able to see at least 3 trees from home 30: Cities should ensure a 30% tree canopy in all neighbourhoods 300: Everyone should have a park within 300 metres of home Via @IUCN iucnurbanalliance.org/promoting-heal…
