ACTION #2

L.A. FOR TREES: ADOPT A TREE, IT'S EASY AND FREE

By planting and taking care of a tree, you can lower temperatures, clean our air, and beautify our communities.

Trees help:

  • Make the weather nicer by lowering temperatures by 8-10 degrees, reducing heat-related illnesses
  • Improve air quality by removing harmful pollutants — each tree removes 48lbs of CO2 annually (equivalent to taking 10 cars off the road for a year).
  • Create shaded public spaces — perfect for walking and bicycling.
  • Cool homes and buildings and limits the need for air conditioning.
