Years ago, Mayor Larry Agran and other environmental activists got the City of Irvine to set a goal to plant 500,000 trees, which has been reached.

Now, the City is setting a new goal to plant thousands more trees to provide shade, help clean the air, sequester carbon, cool the City, and help reach Irvine’s Climate Action Plan goals.
