The Forest for All NYC coalition is holding its third annual City of Forest Day on Saturday, October 26th.
Sometimes in a city like New York, it can be hard to see the forest for the trees. Not to mention the incredibly dense infrastructure all around. But now organizations across the city are partnering to bring attention to the vast, but fragile, urban forest.
Hannah Emple, the Project Manager with the Cities Team at The Nature Conservancy, and Sarah Balistreri, Environmental Educator at Trees New York, joined WNYC host Michael Hill. They're part of the Forest for All NYC coalition, which holds its third annual City of Forest Day on Saturday, October 26th in New York City.
