Trees provide many benefits. Adopted by the Infrastructure & Environment Committee today, the 2018 Tree Canopy Study shows that #CityofTO's urban forests have also provided an estimated $55 million in annual benefits. Learn more at toronto.ca/trees.

What an extraordinary city asset the #TorontoRavines! The future of cities is to (re)build them in balance with nature. (And it was great to see you Jennifer at the destination of this gorgeous trip @EGBrickWorks @FutureCitiesCA!) cc @cities4people – at Montréal, Québec
Not all morning commutes are equal. With a little ingenuity around what to wear on a bike on a work day (often an issue for me), and a bit of route planning, #TorontoRavines could become a backbone for many more Toronto commuters. Often faster than driving or transit.

Paris’s new urban forests are part of a plan to create “islands of freshness”—green spaces that moderate the city’s heat island effect.

What better way to start off Mother’s Day than with a walk through our ravines? Happy Ravines Day!
