Trees
in Trouble http://www.treesintrouble.com/#about-film
tells the story of Cincinnati’s response to the threat to its trees posed by
the emerald ash borer. However, the film’s message is not limited to southern
Ohio: across the country, from Massachusetts to San Diego, Minneapolis to
Charleston, thousands of communities face the same threat: valuable and beloved
trees being killed by non-native insects or diseases. While the trees and
killers differ, the cost to the communities is the same: destruction of trees
that provide shade and other important ecosystem services and create our sense
of home. Trees in Trouble helps us understand what we are losing and links us to
actions we can take to counter this tragedy.” Faith Campbell, Vice President, Center for
Invasive Species Prevention
