Europe to Make Green Spaces Accessible to More People
Unequal access to green spaces and the benefits they offer is a concern across Europe, with varying levels of access in different countries. Research indicates that urban trees can significantly lower temperatures, but disparities exist in green space availability, as seen in the Eurobarometer poll results. To create a greener Europe, experts suggest integrated green planning within cities, following guidelines like the 3-30-300 rule and ensuring equitable distribution of green spaces to avoid issues of gentrification and socioeconomic disparities.
