Thanks @MarkLevineNYC for this report on NYC trees and interviewing @NYRP on the problems with underfunding @NYCParks ! Our mission has always been on bringing awareness to the necessary maintenance of street trees & encouraging proper care with trained volunteers/ tree stewards!
NYC’s trees do much more than beautify our streets, they’re essential infrastructure 🌳 They cool our neighborhoods, improve air quality, reduce flooding, and save the City millions each year. But a new report from the NYC Comptroller’s Office finds we’re falling short on maintaining them, and not every community is benefiting equally. Protecting our urban forest means investing in the care, staffing, and coordination it needs to thrive. Read our full report with our recommendations: https://t.co/GCLmV4JTKh

NYC is in a drought, so think before you flush! Each tap of the handle can use between 1.6 to 6 gallons of water! That's a lot of WATER, and MONEY down the drain! More water-conservation tips here: https://t.co/IK8sNiECWP
As you may already know, NYC is currently under a Drought Watch, meaning that all residents are encouraged to save water wherever possible. Here are a few ways that you can save water at this time, as recommended by the New York City Department of Environmental Protection.
