By planting trees in specially excavated tree pits in heavily paved areas of the city, we’re tackling extreme heat risks while creating benefits for everyone.
We’re working with the Vancouver Board of Parks and Recreation to add more greenery to Vancouver by expanding our street tree canopy.
Our goal is to:
- Add much-needed shade to create cooler streets during hot weather
- Improve air quality and reduce stormwater runoff in heavy rain
- Absorb rainwater into the ground to increase the capacity of our drainage system
