Environment / This Month's Article Environment Newsletter Sign up for the monthly Environment newsletter: Full Name: Email: The Topic Environment refers to the places where New Yorkers live; our surroundings; the air, water and land that make our existence possible. The Context With more than 22,000 people per square mile, NYC must take considerable measures to protect the environment from the effects of such population density. Problems like asthma, PCBs, lead poisoning and waste disposal compromise the quality of the City's natural resources and threaten the health of its residents. The policy implications for solving environmental problems are complex: Should commercial activity take priority over environmental protection? To what extent can we require changes in lifestyle and consumption through legislation? How far does our responsibility extend to those in other places and future generations?

FOREST RESOURCES IN CONNECTICUT Connecticut 370 years after settlement is 60% forested. Almost 90% of that forest is privately owned by some 115,000 individuals, families and land trusts. Our forests make major contributions to our economy and the quality of our lives. Annual production of over 70 million board feet of high quality timber provides the material for over 350 Connecticut industries that process wood. These industries contribute over $400 million annually to Connecticut's economy and export a wide variety of products around the globe. Our forests also provide the essential backdrop for Connecticut's $3.9 billion recreation/tourism industry, and produce and estimated 500,000 cords of firewood, 400,000 Christmas trees, 15,000 gallons of maple syrup and two million gallons of witch hazel astringent each year.

Urban and Community Forestry Program Much of the national news about forestry reported in the press or broadcast on TV pertains to wilderness and other lands quite distant from the daily lives of most people. But trees and forests growing in villages, towns and cities are increasingly being recognized as contributing to the overall environmental quality of places where people live and work. While trees have long been valued for shade and beauty, community forests provide a multitude of benefits. Recent studies indicate that community forests improve air quality, provide habitat for a diversity of wildlife, increase residential property values and enhance the vitality of downtown business districts by attracting shoppers and tourists. Furthermore, community forests provide opportunities to engage and educate large numbers of people about plant ecology, natural resource management and other environmental themes beyond the boundaries of a particular village, town or city.
