1t.org US Chapter
@1t_org_US
The US Chapter of @1t_org co-led by @AmericanForests. Working with US leaders to conserve, restore and grow 1 #trilliontrees by 2030.
This week, the us.1t.org team is in Washington, D.C. for the 9th American Forest Congress! We'll be among the leaders of forestry and conservation, helping shape the health and future of our forests! Give us a shout if you're there! 👋 forestcongress.org
As cities deal with more extreme heat, trees play a crucial role in keeping cities pleasant and healthy places to live. This new study emphasizes the important next step of identifying which tree species are particularly effective at cooling. phys.org/news/2025-06-c…
The area of forest canopy lost to fire during 2023 and 2024 was at least two times greater than the annual average of the previous nearly two decades, according to a new study. nytimes.com/2025/07/21/cli…
Gen Z and millennials are expected to make up 74% of the workforce by 2030, and more than ever, these generations prioritze the sustainability efforts of their employers. Bold goals and real action on climate will help win the trust of these generations. sustainabilitymag.com/news/deloitte-…
Last week, us.1t.org welcomed our community, stakeholders and friends in a reception at the 9th American Forest Congress in Washington, D.C. Thank you to all who joined us! @DorisDukeFdn @AmericanForests
It's time to change how we think about fire in North America. We're excited to introduce you to some of the innovators from the @conservationx Fire Grand Challenge doing just that in our next webinar! 📅: July 31, 2 p.m. ET 💻: Register at bit.ly/3TK8jBq @1t_org @wef
Fast action and local partnership fueled forest recovery after a tornado swept through the Sabine National Forest in March, leaving downed and damaged trees. fs.usda.gov/about-agency/f…
🐝 Meet @Ysa_calderon_, founder of Sumak Kawsay, a youth- and women-led initiative in Salas, Lambayeque, northern #Peru. 🎥 Thanks @Youth4Nature for telling their story! #1torg #SumakKawsay #GenerationRestoration #NatureBasedSolutions #YouthLeadership
It's not just about planting trees, it's about ensuring they thrive. @cityofphoenix is providing homeowners with trees, plants them, and provides supplies such as a 100-foot-long hose, an irrigation timer and soil moisture meter. azfamily.com/2025/07/10/coo…
The new Shade Phoenix Plan takes on deadly temperature disparities with trees, structures and art installations. phoenixmag.com/2025/07/03/thr…
Researchers used summer temperature data and computer modeling to determine what combination of the cooling strategies would bring the most relief without breaking the budget. wbur.org/news/2025/07/0…
🌡️ Shade is essential. Trees make it possible. Extreme heat kills more Americans than any other climate threat — and hits hardest where trees are scarce. Our new Shade Project with @LuskinCenter maps shade deserts & guides equitable climate action. americanforests.org/why-shade-mapp…
Reforestation continues to be one of the most cost-effective carbon removal solutions on the planet, and it's something we can do right now. 🌎 And now we have more info than ever before on how to reforest with the most impact. @nature_org 💻: bit.ly/4kyCmqt
Nature doesn’t take sides — and neither should our commitment to protecting it. We believe that forests are a common ground where values meet: clean air, safe water, resilient communities, and a healthy climate. #NatureIsNonPartisan @NINP_org
We all know WHY reforestation is important, but how can it be done in a way that is most beneficial? New research from @nature_org puts it in context. us.1t.org/stories/puttin…
🌍 #Forests are now emitting more carbon than they absorb in some regions. 🔗 Learn how we must shift from passive conservation to active forest #resilience: weforum.org/stories/2025/0… #TrillionTrees #1torg
Through the charred remains of a wildfire, new life emerges. After the smoke has cleared, it's time to start taking stock of the damage and the potential for reforestation. kaxe.org/local-news/202…
What happens after forest fires? 🌲🔥 Fire plays a natural role in many ecosystems—and some species need it to grow. But today’s fires are more intense, and nature can’t always bounce back. That’s where reforestation comes in.
