Love trees! - 5th Annual 350PDX Urban Shade Equity Ride

This will be our 5th annual ride focused on bringing joy, curiosity, and thoughtful attention to our urban canopy and its inequities which fall along lines of historical racism and income disparities. This year we will celebrate all the young trees that have been planted as part of the PCEF (Portland Clean Energy Fund) Equitable Tree Canopy program in these historically under-invested areas! Our urban trees keep us healthy in many ways, and they deserve our love and protection in return. Let's celebrate our love for our trees, and bring momentum into the movement for climate justice! 🌱❤️🌲 We will gather at 6pm in Lents park, and the 350PDX Action Night will take place until 7pm. Then at 7pm, we'll ride for about 60min to Laurelhurst Park, noticing the urban canopy along the way. Notes: - Kids welcome, though they should be able to keep up with a pace that's casual for adults. - It’s a one-way (not a loop) ride. Event link: https://shift2bikes.org/calendar/event-23626
