1. General information
2. Objectives of the intervention
Goals of the intervention
-Extension of the city's tree heritage
-Replace dead trees or trees in poor condition (Ref. 1)
-"Fight against impermeability of the soil and reclaim the concrete made areas" "Developing and preserving the plant potential of neighborhoods""Restoring ecological corridors" (Ref. 2, page 26 and 27)
-Goals of the proposed tree charter: "The charter consists of a repository of good practices on tree heritage (management, protection, plantations) and an awareness-raising action plan on the place of the tree in town. It applies to asset management
planted with Clermont Auvergne Métropole, initially, but could be extended to all other actors (municipalities, private, etc.). The signatories of this charter will undertake to respect the prescriptions that will be made there" (Ref. 6)
-Goals of study to develop tree charter: "Census of metropolitan trees -definition of a work methodology necessary for the development of the metropolitan tree charter - drafting of specifications based on this methodology, for consultation of service providers Quantities ( supplies and services), nature and extent (works): preliminary study for the development of a metropolitan tree charter" (Ref. 7).

Quantitative targets
"12,000 trees along streets and roads, 30,000 trees in the gardens and square"
"1,700 trees were replanted during the 2003 - 2004, 2004 - 2005 and 2005 - 2006 winters"
"The tramway has integrated the plantation of 1,400 trees and 140,000 shrubs" (Ref. 1)

Sustainability challenge(s) addressed
Habitats and biodiversity conservation: What types of conservation goals are / were defined for the NBS intervention?
Habitats and biodiversity conservation: What activities are implemented to realize the conservation goals and targets?
Implementation activities
"In addition, a phytosanitary diagnosis since 2001 has revealed the fragility of subjects who have resisted urban pollution, mushrooms, car shocks and which can be dangerous due to the risk of falling branches or even the trunk itself, even.
Thus, over 1,700 trees were replanted during the 2003 - 2004, 2004 - 2005 and 2005 - 2006 winters.
Renewal will continue on the basis of new phytosanitary diagnoses."
"The tram line has integrated the plantation of 1,400 trees and 140,000 shrubs." (Ref. 1)
"The town hall of Clermont-Ferrand has replaced a part of the 81 Tulipiers which decorate the most central place of the city." (Ref. 3)
-"The tree heritage: an essential component of the urban environment. The City of Clermont-Ferrand has 12,000 alignment trees, 30,000 trees in gardens and squares. A tree is not eternal, it ages, it dies. Each year, the Plant Techniques Department ( DEP ) replaces more than 200 trees that are dead or in poor condition. In addition, a phytosanitary diagnosis carried out since 2001 has revealed the fragility of subjects who have poorly resisted urban pollution, fungi, car shocks, and who can present a danger by the risk of falling branches, or even the trunk itself" (Ref. 1).
