The 14th Annual Georgia Urban Forest Council Conference and Awards Program, Healthy Trees, Healthy Cities, Healthy People held November 17–19, 2004, offered latest research, raised questions about community priorities, and inspired positive changes to promote human health and societal well-bring. Experts from Georgia and the nation presented alarming statistics on the effects of urban development on our environment and our health. Some of those key findings, along with other statistics, are highlighted on these pages. The Conference was sponsored in partnership with Emory University and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention." [from Seeking a Formula for Good Health]
