What is the Tree Equity Score?

American Forests' Tree Equity Score combines tree canopy coverage, surface temperature, income, employment, race, age, and health data to identify where trees are needed most. Scores range from 0 to 100, and areas below 60 are priority for investment.

+4.0°F
hotter than surrounding areas on average. Pavement absorbs heat, trees block it. That's the whole pitch.
