The USC Urban Trees Initiative is working to grow an equitable and resilient urban forest in L.A. Led by Professor Will Berelson, USC researchers are testing air quality surrounding tree species to better inform Los Angeles city leaders and urban foresters on what to plant and where. Convened by USC Dornsife Public Exchange, the USC Urban Trees Initiative partners university scholars with the City of Los Angeles Department of Public Works and Amigos Nursery in South L.A. #uscsustainability
