Brooklyn Public Library within the City Tree Planting Program MillionTreesNYC, opened a registration for a tree sapling by residents of New York.

Seedlings will issue October 7 from 12: 00 to 14: 00 in the library at: Gerritsen Beach Branch, 2808 Gerritsen Ave, Brooklyn.

In the action can take any resident of one of the five districts of New York. Issued one tree in one hand. The prerequisite is that the tree should be planted near the house or in the backyard, but not in the park or near the road.

Each tree has a special QR code by which you can learn more about the type of tree and its care.

Recall, the program for issuing free trees began in 2006, when the mayor of Los Angeles made the planting of a million trees one of the points of his campaign promises. In 2009, this project became one of the forty nominees for the US Environmental Protection Award. Over time, his example was followed by other American cities, as well as such megacities of Shanghai and London.

In New York, in order to ensure the sustainability of the city, a planting program for a million trees was included in the city’s general 10-year development plan. For the first year, 220 000 new street trees were planted in New York. Trees are planted in parks, on public and private property, as well as in all five districts of the city, increasing the size of the urban green dome of the city by 20%.
