UC Davis's campus tree canopy is currently threatened due to the combined effects of climate change stressors and an aging population of trees, leading to the decline and removal of many trees. In an effort to renew our campus canopy, the Urban Tree Stewardship Learning by Leading team proposes to engage interns and the campus community in planting and establishing heat tolerant trees of various species. Maintaining a thriving UC Davis central campus canopy will promote the many environmental and human health benefits that trees provide, all while providing a hands-on educational experience for students and the campus community.
