Due to a new major development proposal, 121 *healthy* trees (42 street trees, 9 significant trees, and 70 trees on the property itself) are slated for removal from 3700 California St. This will be a significant loss of urban canopy, especially considering the plans to chop down 200 trees just a few blocks away at 3333 California St. Please join us in our effort to help save these beautiful and helpful trees.
For more information on the Environmental Impact Report that will be discussed at this hearing, please review the EIR here:

Based on an i-tree report the trees in the public right of way alone to date, have:
intercepted 373,328 gallons of stormwater and reduced atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) by 95,470 pounds.
This year will:
intercept 59,054 gallons of stormwater and reduce atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) by 13,127 pounds.
In the year 2039 will:
reduce atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) by 20,198 pounds and intercept 141,591 gallons of stormwater that year.
Over the next 20 years will:
reduce atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) by a total amount of 330,648 pounds and intercept a total of 2,060,778 gallons of stormwater.
If you'd like to join us, please come prepared to say a little something about why these trees are important to you.
