One Man’s Quest to Reforest the Rio Grande Valley
85% Informative
Less than 10 percent of the Tamaulipan thorn forest that once blanketed the Rio Grande Valley still stands.
The preserve is one of the last remnants of a dense mosaic of at least 1,200 plants, including poky shrubs and trees like mesquite, acacia , hackberry, ebony, and brasil.
Jon Dale , a director at American Forests , hopes to restore at least 81,444 acres .
The Rio Grande Valley is a 43,000-square-mile delta that stretches across four counties in southernmost Texas .
Flooding, long a problem, worsens as stormwater infrastructure lags behind development.
Urban trees can reduce runoff by as much as 26 percent because their canopies intercept rainfall and their roots help absorb it.
American Forests has created a playbook of climate-informed” planting.
The organization expects that in the future, species that require at least 20 inches of annual rainfall could perish.
Trees like Texas ebony and mesquite that have thorns to protect them from munching animals and long roots to tap moisture deep within the earth .
