Reforestation and environmental protection. Invite more people to help to continue planting trees.
Forests are the lungs of the earth. They are responsible for producing oxygen and absorbing carbon dioxide, the greenhouse gas responsible for global warming. However, deforestation, industrialization, and other human activities have resulted in a rapid decrease in forest cover. This has had a severe impact on the environment, leading to increased levels of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, climate change, and loss of biodiversity. To combat this, reforestation and afforestation have become vital components of environmental protection efforts. Reforestation refers to the process of planting trees in areas where forests have been depleted or destroyed. Afforestation, on the other hand, refers to the establishment of new forests on land that has not been forested before. Reforestation and afforestation have a significant impact on the environment. Trees absorb carbon dioxide, release oxygen, and provide a habitat for wildlife. Moreover, forests help to stabilize the soil, prevent soil erosion, and maintain the water cycle by storing and releasing water. They also provide various goods and services, including timber, non-timber forest products, and recreation opportunities. The importance of reforestation and afforestation cannot be overstated. However, it is not possible to achieve the desired results without the involvement of the wider community. Governments, NGOs, and private companies are doing their part, but it is essential to engage more people to help continue planting trees. Individuals can play an important role in protecting the environment by volunteering, donating, or simply spreading awareness about the importance of forests. Volunteering is a great way to get involved in reforestation efforts. There are numerous organizations and groups that organize tree-planting events and other activities related to environmental protection. Volunteering can be a fun and rewarding experience, as it provides an opportunity to meet like-minded people, learn new skills, and contribute to a worthy cause. Donating is another way to support reforestation efforts. Many organizations and NGOs rely on donations to carry out their work. Even a small contribution can make a difference, as it can help fund the purchase of seedlings, tools, and other materials needed for tree-planting. Spreading awareness is also important in encouraging more people to get involved in environmental protection. Sharing information on social media, participating in discussions, and educating others about the importance of forests can help raise awareness and inspire action. This can lead to more people becoming involved in reforestation efforts and other environmental protection initiatives. In conclusion, reforestation and afforestation are crucial for environmental protection. Trees play a vital role in maintaining the health of the planet, and it is essential to continue planting them. Governments, NGOs, and private companies are doing their part, but more people need to get involved. Volunteering, donating, and spreading awareness are great ways to contribute to environmental protection efforts. By working together, we can protect the environment and ensure a better future for generations to come. Read the full article

Before and after renderings of Tillary Street near the Brooklyn Bridge. New York City DOT
Excerpt:
Many cities, in recent years, have initiated tree planting campaigns to offset carbon dioxide emissions and improve urban microclimates.
In 2007, New York City launched MillionTrees NYC, a program designed to plant 1 million new trees along streets, in parks and on private and public properties by 2017. They hit their goal two years ahead of time.
These programs are popular for a reason: Not only do trees improve the city's appearance, but they also mitigate the urban heat island effect—the tendency for dense cities to be hotter than surrounding areas. Studies have shown that trees reduce pollutants in the air, and even the mere sight of trees and the availability of green spaces in cities can decrease stress.
But as I show in my new book, Seeing Trees: A History of Street Trees in New York City and Berlin, trees weren't always a part of the urban landscape. It took a systematic, coordinated effort to get the first ones planted.

It has been one year since I made this blog! It was my first attempt at blogging. I had attended the 2017 Mississippi Water Security Institute and wanted to share some of my thoughts about how Mississippi could take better care of its resources.
The blog has grown more than I thought it would and I really appreciate all the people I have connected with through this platform. Surprisingly it isn’t only my mom who reads my blog (she doesn’t even read it)!
I just finished up the 2018 Mississippi Water Security Institute, which has allowed me to return to what I believe is important. This year at the Water Security Institute we focused on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.
Here is what we learned that really stuck with me:
Living Lands and Waters
Chad Pregracke was our keynote speaker and he was truly amazing! Chad decided that if no one else was going to clean up the Mississippi River, he would. At the age of 23, Chad founded Living Lands & Waters, a nonprofit that began cleaning the river. Today, the organization has grown to include a full staff and fleet of equipment and has expanded to include Student Educational Workshops, The MillionTrees Project, Adopt-a-River Mile, and Invasive Species Removal, as well as The Great Mississippi River Cleanup.
During the two week program my friends started calling me Chad Jr. Apparently I also pick up a lot of trash.
pick pick pick up trash!
Round Island
As sea levels are rising more than two inches per year, islands just off the coast of Mississippi are disappearing under water. This is a big problem because barrier islands protect us from hurricanes and storms as well as maintain our brackish water at a very specific salinity. The salinity is perfect for oysters, shrimp, and other seafood that dominate our blue economy.
While this is happening, industries are moving into coastal towns. This leads to dredging out areas so that their ships can get to where they need to go. The excess material tends to be placed out into the Gulf of Mexico. To save money, they could place the excess material where it is needed on top of barrier islands to bring them back above surface. Not only does this save money, but it preserves our coast both physically and economically.
Round Island has been sort of a pilot project for this idea. We went out there and were able to see all of the migratory birds that have claimed it as their temporary home. It is still bare, but that will be finished up soon. I hope all of the coastal states continue this trend.
Beach Outfalls Challenge
Another big problem that contributes to a decrease in our blue economy are the storm water drains. They pump storm water from all over our coast into the Mississippi Sound (the water between the barrier islands and the mainland). The water is full of garbage, sediment, and nutrient runoff. This causes plenty of problems alone, but on top of this, the pipes look very similar to what I would imagine sewage pumping into the Sound would look like. This is not good for our tourism industry at all.
Example of a storm water drainage pipe.
Not aesthetically pleasing or safe for people to walk on.
The Beach Outfalls Challenge is a public prize challenge sponsored by the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) and is funded through a grant from the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation Gulf Environmental Benefit Fund (NFWF GEBF). We want to enhance Mississippi’s ability to restore and maintain ecological integrity by providing measurable improvements to water quality and reducing significant sources of degradation, which will of course provide improvements in the aesthetic appeal of the beaches and therefore help tourism as well.
For the challenge, teams were able to send in plans for addressing the problem and the top three teams would be able to bring their designs to life. From there, water quality could be tested, locals surveyed, as well as other measures of performance to determine how to continue.
I believe this idea is brilliant because there are so many problems being faced by the Mississippi Gulf Coast with one thing after another from Hurricane Katrina of 2005 to the Deep Water Horizon Oil Spill on 2010. Can’t wait to see how it all is coming along in the months to come.
Germany!
Today is also a big day because it’s the start of a big adventure. Today I’m leaving my hometown in Mississippi and tomorrow I’m landing in Germany! I’ll be there for about a year!
I’m planning on studying and exploring, but mostly exploring! I’ll definitely be updating you guys on my German adventure (you can see more about it at my school’s study abroad blog)! 🙂
The 2018 Mississippi Water Security Institute has inspired me to work on quite a few projects that will be coming to you guys in the coming months while I’m in Germany!
Peace out,
Kris
