  6. One of the many harmful legacies of redlining is inequity in neighborhood tree coverage:

    “Tree equity: Who gets trees in their neighborhood?

    Why are some neighborhoods so much greener than others? ... It turns out that neighborhoods that were historically redlined in the ‘30s and ‘40s live today with only half the tree cover of their "greenlined" neighborhood counterparts.”

Initiatives like Phoenix’s Cool Corridors show how planting trees in high-use areas can promote activity and resilience. With rapidly rising global temperatures, investing in tree cover is essential for maintaining healthy, active communities. Details here: americanforests.medium.com/how
