Notas do Editor
- Congress created the National Urban and Community Forestry Advisory Council in the 1990 U.S. Farm Bill to advise the Secretary of Agriculture on matters relating to the protection, planting, and care of trees and forests in our nation’s cities and communities. One of The Council's specific purposes is to:
- SIMLIFY -- MAYBE JUST THE NUMBER OF IDEAS???!?!?!?
- THIS IS OKAY $460/million per year Based on the field data of 10 USA cities and a national urban tree cover data, it is estimated that urban trees in the coterminous USA currently store 700 million tones of carbon ($14,300 million value) with a gross carbon sequestration rate of 22.8 million tC/year ($460/million per year) (Nowak et al. 2002). $2.4 Trillion Based on the field data of 10 USA cities and a national urban tree cover data, it is estimated that urban trees in the coterminous USA currently store 700 million tones of carbon ($14,300 million value) with a gross carbon sequestration rate of 22.8 million tC/year ($460/million per year) (Nowak et al. 2002). $1.37 - $3.09 A study on the value of street and park trees in five US cities found that for every dollar invested in urban tree management resulted in benefits valued between $1.37 to $3.09 annually (McPherson, et al. 2005).
