[PCA] International Day Of Forests Challenge

[De Angelis, Patricia]

Walking among the trees and exploring nature can provide a little peace and
calm even in the busiest of cities. Of course, the benefits of urban
forested areas don't end there. According to the Food and Agriculture
Organization of the United Nations (FAO)
<http://www.fao.org/international-day-of-forests/en/>, strategically placed
trees in urban areas can cool the air by between 2 to 8 degrees C (35-46
degrees F)!

Take this challenge to celebrate today - the International Day of Forests:
