Jacob Cowan shoots water as fellow Northern Arizona University staffer and project manager Chris Updike uses a auger to dig a hole for planting one of 1000 mesquite and palo verde saplings, near the southwest part of the West campus, Thursday, November 19, 2020. The young trees were grown and are being planted mostly by employees from the Merriam-Powell Center for Environmental Research, a part of NAU. The desert vegetation project is a carbon-capture forest demonstration. The saplings are planted about a two-feet depth so their tap roots will venture deep. Because of the soil’s rocky condition, the 1000-tree planting should take about a week the 10 forestry workers. Photo by Charlie Leight/Arizona State University
