Over 1,000 trees, including Native trees in good condition, are slated for Phase 1 Removal as part of the Rock Creek Park Rehabilitation Project, approved by the National Capital Planning Commission on Sept. 5, 2024. How can we stop this tree genocide, deforestation, about to happen right in front of our eyes, not far away in the Amazon, but right here in Washington, DC, the Nation's Capital? __________ Thanks to everyone who came to the DC EcoWomen Photo Hike: Save Trees in Rock Creek Park Golf Course! We measured and documented heritage trees with over 31.8 DBH (100 inches in circumference or more)! These Native trees in good condition, include Pin Oaks, White Oaks, Tulip Trees, Black Locust Trees and more. LEARN MORE https://lnkd.in/eupr28ZB **Did you know over 1,000, including Native trees in good condition, will be cut down in Phase 1 Tree Removal starting this November at Rock Creek Park Golf Course, a National Park in DC? **Did you know these trees are on federal National Park land, so not protected by DC Heritage Tree laws? **Who can stop these trees from getting cut down? National Park Service President Biden, VP Harris and Secretary of Interior Deb Haaland We are counting on you to help save these treasured giant trees that do so much for our community and country. In response to this project, Casey Trees issued a policy statement that “Strongly encourages NPS to limit the removal of healthy trees, in particular healthy trees that fit into the District’s definition of Special and Heritage Trees, even if it means reconfiguring greens and fairways to accommodate those trees.” https://lnkd.in/ebVwDck8
