Cool Dallas: A model for community involvement

Reference Type
Conference Proceedings (Chapter)

"The concept of Cool Dallas was to strategically place trees on private property to shade residential structures in low income neighborhoods." (p.133) [UMN]

"Community involvement and a partnership between local nonprofits and neighborhood leaders combined to create a tree planting project designed to reduce energy consumption and lower utility bills. Town hall meetings were scheduled and educational material was developed to introduce the project concept and care of the trees." [Abstract]
