A riparian zone is the land adjacent to rivers, lakes, or wetlands. Reforesting this area along the Red River provides many benefits for the local community. It improves bank stability along with water and air quality. Also, it provides suitable habitat for the river wildlife, shade, and additional recreation opportunities. Residential areas next to green spaces have also been shown to create neighborhoods with lover crime rates.
