Of course, we are all park lovers here, but there are more benefits to
green spaces than meets the eye. 

Neighborhoods with fewer parks suffer more intense heat, and every bit
of added vegetation can help! TPL's analysis of 14,000 cities and
towns shows that nationwide, areas within a 10-minute walk of a park
can be up to 6 degrees cooler than areas beyond that range. That's a
big deal because extreme heat has become the most deadly type of
weather hazard-killing more people than floods, extreme cold,
tornadoes, hurricanes, and more. 

In cities like Washington, DC, and Baltimore temperatures showed
differences of up to 17 degrees between park space and streetscapes
dominated by stone, asphalt, and cement. Tellingly, the coolest
temperature readings in DC came from deep-green Rock Creek Park and
the National Arboretum. 

We're working to protect public lands across the country, and cooling
neighborhoods while we do so. Will you join us while all gifts are
matched 2X in honor of National Public Lands Day?

PS: Fun fact. Twenty-four percent of land in the District of Columbia
is reserved for parks, among the highest in the United States. Is it
any surprise that Washington, DC's park system was rated the nation's
best big-city park system in our 2024 ParkScore Index? Make a matched
gift now to help TPL improve parks in communities across the country.
