Save The Tree Canopy Mission Statement SAVE The TREE CANOPY strives to preserve established tree canopy to protect mature greengrowth areas and to educate regarding the benefits of an extensive wooded area. A tree canopy exists when the upper portions of mature trees come together to form a layer sheltering the ground. Key Priorities Educate the general public civic leaders and developers on the urgent need to preserve maintain and protect existing and established green spaces in order to provide as much storage of carbon dioxide as possible. Provide support via volunteers for a variety of activities including but not limited to attending local government meetings where proposals are initiated requiring destruction of large trees.
