<br /> PR O C L A M A T I O N <br /> <br />WHEREAS: Climate change is a complex problem that impacts all Minnesotans and our ability to <br />thrive, and <br />WHEREAS: The health and longevity of Minnesota’s trees are being affected by changing <br />temperatures and precipitation, more extreme weather events, and increasing pressure from pests, <br />diseases, and invasive species, and <br />WHEREAS: Minnesota is at risk to lose over one billion ash trees due to emerald ash borer, <br />potentially increasing C02 emissions and flooding, and <br />WHEREAS: A healthy tree canopy decreases temperatures along streets providing cooler spaces in the <br />summertime for recreation and commerce, and <br />WHEREAS: About three-quarters of Minnesotans get their drinking water from the forested parts of <br />the state; and <br />WHEREAS: Shade from trees protects people from exposure to the sun’s UV rays and diminishes heat- <br />related illness, and <br />WHEREAS: Trees reduce stormwater runoff and act as a filter, preventing sediments and pollutants <br />from washing into waterways, and <br />WHEREAS: Trees capture carbon from the atmosphere and store it in their trunks, roots, and soil, and <br />WHEREAS: Minnesotans can help build resilient communities and reduce the negative impacts of <br />climate change One Tree at a Time by planting and caring for trees and by using wood <br />products to store carbon into the future <br /> <br />NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, the St. Anthony Village City Council hereby designates <br />FRIDAY, APRIL 24, 2020 as ST. ANTHONY ARBOR DAY and the month of MAY 2020, as ARBOR <br />MONTH in St. Anthony Village. <br /> <br /> <br /> Randy Stille, Mayor <br /> <br /> April 14, 2020 <br />29
