Elisabeth Levac is a full professor Bishop’s University. Her research interests are varied but most are related to trees. After research projects about paleoclimates of Eastern Canada, that we study using fossil tree pollen, she started monitoring the pollen found in the air we breathe. Yes, this pollen is mainly produced by trees! The present project was conceived to share this love of trees and to get you to discover their numerous benefits in urban environments.
