Greening The City
Trees do a lot for a city. Beyond their beauty, they’ve been shown to increase property values, reduce crime, and new research shows they can even enhance your brain power. As a result of these findings, the city of Boston has pledged to plant 100,000 trees before 2020, but progress is slow — it turns out planting trees is more expensive and controversial than anyone anticipated. We ask two environmental experts how to jumpstart the project.
Guests:
Jeremy Dick, Director of Property and Horticulture at the Boston Natural Areas Network
Tim De Chant, environmental journalist and author of the blog Per Square Mile
