Faith organizations and congregations are critical anchors in communities across American cities - they are trusted leadership, provide needed social services, and serve as community hubs. Faith organizations are also leading in climate justice through equitable urban forestry.
Communities of color and lower income communities have 36-45% less tree cover and are 6-9°F hotter than wealthier and whiter communities. Tree Equity is a climate justice issue, and faith-based organizations and communities are at the center of climate justice solutions. Building on our popular Tree Equity Learning Series, Join American Forests and Creation Justice Ministries for a free online learning session to ensure your urban forestry investments make an impact on Tree Equity.
In our fourth webinar 'Faith in Tree Equity' on April 25th - during Earth Week and Faith in Climate Action Week - we will dive into the role that faith communities play in advancing action on Tree Equity, what successful partnerships with faith communities look like, and tools to support organizing on Tree Equity action for faith organizations.
