"City Councilmember Ysabel Jurado led the ceremony and said the trees will be replaced two to one. "Anytime DTLA has had a downturn, it comes back stronger," she said.

Los Angeles Bureau of Street Services General Manager Ana Tabuena-Ruddy called it an instance of eco-terrorism. "We are planting Oak trees, Desert Willows, Catalina Cherry, and in locations we couldn't plant natives, we are identifying drought-tolerant trees to plant," Tabuena-Ruddy said." #UrbanForest

Planting Street Trees on City Property

YouTube

I see videos of so many cities where I see so few plants. Not just few street trees, but few plants, period.

We need intact ecosystems more than horticultural landscapes, but urban horticulture also helps. Not just in terms of providing O2 and fixing CO2, but in terms of mental health and ameliorating urban heat islands.

If you're going to city council over issues, make sure you add this one. How good is your city at planting & maintaining plants? #ClimateChange #UrbanForest #Urbanism

There's multiple entrances into #CuthbertHolmesPark - which is directly connected to Colquitz River Park. This is my fave entrance because it takes you straight into the forest 😊💚🌲 There's an unmarked entrance around the corner from here that also leads directly into forest & we exited from that trail.
These two nearby municipal parks are part of the Craigflower-Colquitz Watershed. There's estuary/bird & wildlife sanctuary areas in both parks. Lots of active rewilding projects happening year round in both parks too. Please keep your dogs on leash & out of nature restoration zones.

Chainsaw vandals: 70 trees deliberately cut, left to die in Powell River | CBC News

Police say municipal staff inspected the site and found the trees were left standing but had been cut around their bases, likely with a chainsaw. Many of the trees that were cut were older-growth Douglas fir trees, valuable to the community and ecosystem.
