NS-14: Promote urban tree canopy
Maintain, create, and/or restore urban tree canopy.

Ensure current tree planting and shade tree canopy programs establish native tree species over non-native species.
Identify and invest in salt-tolerant tree species that can withstand hurricanes and provide multiple ecosystem services, such as habitat for other native species.
Prioritize planting efforts in low-income areas and communities of color where the existing tree canopy is disproportionately sparse.
