Urban Green Space

As climate change continues to reshape our world, cities are already bearing the brunt of more frequent and extreme weather events. This highlights the urgent need for society to confront climate change and implement effective mitigation and adaptation strategies in cities. Investing in green spaces is becoming increasingly popular as a cooling solution for urban heat. Urban green space can be defined as open space mainly covered with vegetation in urban environments, including public and private gardens, parks, green walls, green roofs, greenways and woodlands, etc. Prominent among these are urban parks, which are a key component in mitigating urban heat.
