2005 National Conference on Urban Ecosystems
Organized by American Forests
November 17-18, 2005 in Charlotte, NC
The urban forest is an untapped resource—one that can help cities meet regulatory requirements for clean air and water, revitalize neighborhoods, and reduce the costs of building and maintaining infrastructure. The 2005 National Conference on Urban Ecosystems, Nature at Your Service, will show how to reconnect people to their city’s natural resources.
The latest chapter in urban thinking for the 21st century recognizes the ecological city and the importance of respecting and using natural systems of forests, soils, water, and air to support urban areas. Nature at Your Service is designed both for those who want to influence the shape and direction of their community and for those who must meet environmental quality requirements. From local to regional perspectives, the conference will highlight latest technologies, emerging public policies, and tools to help put the urban forest to best use.
