II. RATIONALE:
People’s lives are stimulated and made healthier and more energized by nature. In
addition to making cities more attractive and livable, the incorporation of trees into urban
livability offers residents of urban areas a variety of advantages. A healthy urban forest requires
adequate design, upkeep, awareness, resource allocation, and community involvement, all of
which require ongoing commitment.
As a result of trees removing moisture from the soil, less water contributes to flash flood
episodes. As tree roots penetrate the earth, they make tiny openings into which rainwater pours
rather than allowing it to wash off the land. The soil is also kept in place by the root system,
preventing valuable and nutrient-rich topsoil from being washed into rivers and streams, which
can lead to flooding during periods of severe rains. Raindrops that fall on leaves either evaporate
immediately into the air, slowing the flow of water, or drip onto the ground more gently, causing
less erosion.
