Many areas of the U.S. are experiencing an increase in the frequency of intense storms, heavy precipitation events, and associated flooding. The Northeast Ohio Public Information and Public Education work group (NEO PIPE) is pleased to present a free virtual program to explore the vital role trees play in curbing the negative consequences of a changing climate. While all trees “feel the heat”, some are experiencing increased stress and mortality in certain areas, yet increased growth in others. Join us on Thursday, March 25th at 6:30 pm for an informative presentation featuring Dan Herms, Vice President of Research and Development from Davey Tree Expert Company. Learn more about the challenges facing our future forests and some simple strategies you can use to take root for storm water!
