Why Tree Canopy Matters
Urban tree canopies are crucial for enhancing the livability and sustainability of our cities. They contribute to improved air quality, reduced heat island effects, and increased biodiversity. By assessing tree canopy coverage, we can better understand the current state of our green spaces, identify areas needing attention, and plan for a healthier urban environment.
