Recent studies confirm 4 best landscape design strategies to reduce climate warming:
-Plant as many trees as possible
-Create more shade
-Plants and water are better than hardscape
-Living groundcovers are better than artificial turf

“While we were developing our Climate Action Plan, landscape architects told us what they needed most was authoritative evidence that demonstrates all the great benefits of their work. We are thrilled Daniella brought the research together to make the strongest case to policymakers, community groups, allied professionals, and the public. We now have the best science on landscape architecture strategies for extreme heat on hand" -- ASLA CEO Torey Carter-Conneen

The American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) Fund has released new peer-reviewed research on landscape architecture solutions to extreme heat, the deadliest climate impact.

The research was developed by Dr. Daniella Hirschfeld, ASLA, PhD, Assistant Professor of Climate Adaptation Planning, Landscape Architecture and Environmental Planning Department, Utah State University. Dr. Hirschfeld won a competitive national grant from the ASLA Fund in 2023 to conduct the research.
