Abstract
This study investigates the role of urban green spaces in improving air quality and mitigating urban heat islands in metropolitan areas. By analyzing satellite data and conducting field measurements across five major cities worldwide, the research evaluates the extent to which urban parks and green rooftops contribute to reducing air pollutants and lowering temperatures. The results indicate significant improvements in air quality and temperature reduction, emphasizing the importance of integrating green infrastructure into urban planning. This study provides valuable insights for policymakers to promote sustainable urban environments.
