Radix Center On Federal Grant To Promote Urban Forests
The federal government recently announced a $5 million grant to the U Albany Dept. of Geography and Planning to promote urban forests, part of a nationwide effort to reduce heat from climate change. The Radix Ecological Sustainability Center in the South End will be their community partner as environmental justice is a big part of the national program. Scott Kellogg of Radix talks with Mark Dunlea of Hudson Mohawk Magazine about how the Center’s existing fruit tree planting program builds into this effort.
