WSU and Local Colleges Join Forces to Green Our Urban Spaces and Combat Climate Change
Washington State University (WSU) has started a project with four community colleges in Washington to improve urban forests and increase tree canopy coverage. This five-year project, supported by a $1.8 million grant from the USDA Forest Service Urban and Community Forestry Program under the Inflation Reduction Act, aims to build resilience in urban areas facing climate change challenges. The colleges involved are Spokane Community College, Highline Community College in Des Moines, Whatcom Community College in Bellingham, and Tacoma Community College.
