Abstract
Urban green spaces have been recognized for their potential to enhance biodiversity and improve air quality in metropolitan areas. This study investigates the relationship between the presence of urban green spaces and the diversity of local flora and fauna, as well as their impact on air pollution levels. Using a combination of field observations and air quality monitoring in various cities, we analyzed the biodiversity indices and particulate matter concentrations. The results indicate a positive correlation between well-maintained green areas and increased species richness, alongside a reduction in airborne pollutants. These findings underscore the importance of integrating green spaces into urban planning to promote sustainable city environments.
