As climate change takes toll on trees, CT steps up to meet challenge

At 9:30 on a morning in late May, it was already hot and promising to get hotter as a dozen or so volunteers gathered at the Hoffman Evergreen Preserve in Stonington. They were there to plant trees – a seemingly curious activity, considering the preserve is already a forest. But planting those trees – a mere 150 or so on this particular day – is intended to do more than just revitalize the woodland. Along with a few similar projects around the state, the Hoffman work may help set a course for how Connecticut can adapt its forests to withstand the effects of climate change.

Opinion/Millar: Legislation to encourage forest conservation is long overdue Scott Millar Scott Millar is director of community assistance and conservation at Grow Smart Rhode Island. What can provide Rhode Island with clean and safe air to breathe and water to drink, create jobs, fight climate change, moderate stifling hot temperatures, protect native wildlife, provide a multitude of recreational opportunities and add an invaluable sense of place to communities? The answer is Rhode Island’s forests. Conserving them is essential to sustain our quality of life.
