The Urban Forests Program provides free quality seedlings and guidance on urban tree management. Implemented in 2007 and reformulated in 2015 by Copel’s environmental and social responsibility department, it has already benefited around one hundred municipalities, with the planting of over 85,000 trees.
The goal is fostering a fine urban afforestation management, by planting adequate species in each city location. Thus, small-size species planting, where electric power passes, is essential to enable there are no blackouts and decrease cutting requirements.
The on-line seedling request shall be performed by the cities, and the removal is performed in the botanical garden of Governador Ney Aminthas de Barros Braga Power Station (Segredo), in Reserva do Iguaçu/PR.
