Trees have a substantial influence on windspeed, maximum temperature during the day (especially on the hottest days of the year), humidity, minimum temperature and possibly play a role in modification of rainfall. Where the actual climate for crops, livestock and people is involved, one of the most effective things that people can do is manage trees, including tree planting. However, the official climate data that form the basis for climate policy exclude such effects and scientists are only slowly coming to grips with this issue. The CooLTree method contrasts the local, public/policy and science-based knowledge.
