SUMMARY:Creating Age-Friendly Communities with Green Infrastructure: How Addressing Needs of Children and Older Adults Benefits All (Webinar)
DESCRIPTION:Check out the latest installment of EPA’s Green Infrastructure Webcast Series:\nDescription: As we are experiencing unpredictable conditions intensified by climate change\, discussion on who is the most vulnerable has focused on race\, income and zip codes. Age\, however\, must also be part of the conversation because children and older adults are at a higher risk for exposure to environmental factors such as excessive heat and flooding. In this webinar we will hear about the risk factors facing those older and younger among us and how age-friendly resilience strategies that include green infrastructure can mitigate risks while strengthening a community’s social infrastructure and benefit all.\nSPEAKERS: \nDanielle Arigoni\, Managing Director for Policy and Solutions\, National Housing Trust\nSharon Danks\, Founder and CEO of Green Schoolyards America\nJuan Mireles\, Director\, School Facilities and Transportation Services Division\, California Department of Education \nClick here to learn more and register

SUMMARY:Webinar: Choose Native Mini-Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Community members\, volunteers\, and interested professionals are invited to join Pennsylvania Sea Grant and Penn State Extension for this virtual mini-workshop focused on replacing invasive species with those native to Pennsylvania in landscapes and water gardens. Landscaping and water gardening activities often lead to the unintended introduction and spread of invasive plant species to our natural lands and waterways. Once established\, invasive species can degrade natural habitats by outcompeting native species for space\, light\, and nutrients. Invasive species can impact the food web by altering the plant community and decreasing the diversity of plants available for food sources\, habitat\, and shelter. Preventing invasive plant introductions by utilizing native alternatives in landscapes and water gardens is a viable solution. This Choose Native mini-workshop will introduce participants to native species options and creative ways to include native species in landscapes and aquatic designs. Click here to learn more and register\nWho is this for? \nProperty owners\nLandscapers\nThose wanting to learn more about invasive and native plants\nNative plant enthusiasts \nWhat will you learn? \nThe importance of Pennsylvania native species\nImpacts of invasive species in the built environment Ideas for utilizing native plants in the landscape\nManaging native species in landscapes and water gardens \nThis mini-workshop is hosted by Pennsylvania Sea Grant and Penn State Extension with a special guest presentation by Native Creations Landscaping Services.\nThis event is being offered at no charge to participants thanks to funding from the Richard King Mellon Foundation and the Great Lakes Commission.\nClick here to learn more and register
