SUMMARY:Greening Newton Houses of Worship: Challenges Facing Newton Town Trees in a Changing Climate
DESCRIPTION:Challenges Facing Newton Town Trees in a Changing Climate”\nWilliam Moomaw and Gil Rodgers\, Minerva Action Group\, LLC \nUnion Church\, Newton\, MA\, Saturday\, October 24\, 2026\, 7 PM \n“Have you hugged your tree today?” Drs. Moomaw and Rodgers will discuss the importance of Newton’s town trees and how in the changing climate we are experiencing this will affect their sustainability and growth. The Minerva Action Group is an independent organization of individuals with interest and expertise in climate issues and particularly in trees and woodlands. It has created and conducted exercises for students\, government officials\, and town’s people to understand the role of trees in capturing and sequestering carbon\, providing regional cooling and reducing flooding by evaporating water from their leaves. The discussion will suggest how to improve the management of town trees to track these changes and alter practices. There will time for informal discussion and light refreshments following the program” \nCo-sponsored by Union Church\, Green Newton\, FUUSN Climate Action Team\, SHOL Care Creation Team
