Abstract

Urban green spaces play a crucial role in maintaining biodiversity and improving air quality in densely populated areas. This study investigates the correlation between the presence of urban parks and gardens and the diversity of local flora and fauna in three major cities: New York, Tokyo, and Berlin. Using a combination of field surveys and remote sensing technology, we assessed plant species richness and air pollutant levels in these green spaces. Our findings suggest a positive relationship between the size and diversity of urban green spaces and the improvement of air quality, highlighting the importance of preserving and expanding these areas for environmental health and urban sustainability.
