Abstract
⺠Urban forest benefits mobilized as ecosystem services as part of ecological modernist agenda. ⺠Government grant funding for urban forestry expands civil sector as pedagogical actor. ⺠Civil sector organizations expand neoliberal, market hegemony. ⺠Market-based urban forestry is selective and limits capacity of trees to benefit everyone. ⺠Current urban forestry practice need be replaced by grassroots comprehensive alternatives as part of a political ecology of praxis.
