Cool Tucson 5 Workshop

Want to learn how YOU can have an impact as temperatures continue to increase within Tucson? Join us at the Living Lab and learn about how native plants are built to withstand variable weather and the importance of building an understory. Witness the impact that light earthworks in combination with plants can have to cool the spaces around us. 

As climate change begins to affect us we can feel hopeless and powerless but as you will learn, stewarding the land and open spaces within cities can have tremendous impact not only on ourselves but our community, plants, and animals. You will see real life examples of what we can do as individuals while learning what the city is currently doing to address these issues. In the end you can expect to leave a little more empowered and inspired while taking home a small plant kit to kickstart your journey into being a part of the solution of cooling Tucson!
