Plant, Protect, and Prepare 5 Million Trees between 2020 and 2030.
The 5 million trees will come from (1) Planting more trees countywide, mostly in communities that have few trees and where trees can improve salmon habitat; (2) Protecting forestland and trees from development; and (3) Preparing forests to be more resilient under a changing climate that has warmer, drier summers and increasing wildfire risk. Preparedness actions include removing noxious weeds and thinning forests in some areas to create room for trees to thrive.
