Not enough, they need to plant a lot more to cool the city and deal with the larger rain fall.

I recently found that my city of Bristol, UK has the same [1] along with one for green spaces [2] and loads more at [3]. Fun to explore.

This is very incomplete, as you can easily see by switching to the aerial photo base map but keeping the tree overlay[0]. You'll see a ton of trees that are not marked. I'm guessing it's only city-owned trees, or something like that?

  If you open the hamburger menu and go to "more maps", you can click an info button next to the tree marker, which shows a popup with the word "Stadtbäume" (city trees) which links to here: https://www.stadt-zuerich.ch/ted/de/index/gsz/natur-erleben/stadtbaeume.html https://www.stadt-zuerich.ch/ted/de/index/gsz/natur-erleben/... That page clarifies that these trees are indeed just the trees on public land, which are maintained by the city. Trees in private areas aren't included.

Here’s a link for my city. The city is number 1 for trees in the USA, I think Chicago has the least. At first glance it’s not as detailed and a little dated but there are more trees now than ever. https://geospatial.gatech.edu/Greenspace/ https://geospatial.gatech.edu/Greenspace/
