Tales from Urban Forests 2:Code Green/Cities of the Plain

From Soundprint | Part of the Tales from Urban Forests series | 00:58:55
Producers: Gemma Hooley and Bill Drummond

 Credit:
Part 2 of the three part special documentary series on Urban Forests, from Soundprint. We visit the hurricane-ravaged Gulf Coast, to see the effect of the storm on the trees, and the trees on the residents; then, out to arid California, to see why trees are being planted in the middle of a drought.

Tales from Urban Forests documents the impact trees and greenery have on cities around the US.

Code Green:
Producer Gemma Hooley explores the impact that hurricanes have on urban green cover, from integrating trees and wetlands into a city's infrastructure and disaster plan, to post-hurricane damage assessment of city trees and coastal marshes, to recovery and rebuilding. Hear from scientists, city planners and urban foresters about their work to establish, protect and restore the green infrastructure in the wake of catastrophic hurricanes, in coastal cities from Charleston to New Orleans.

Cities of the Plain
Urban forests in desert settings ? no, this is not about transferring Central Park to L.A. Arid environments have their own ?green? cover, and cities destroy and ignore that vegetation to their peril. Veteran producer Bill Drummond travels out West from mountains to shore to ask: when are trees beneficial and when are they not? His search helps us understand how urban policies are shaping the U.S. and global ecosystem.
