What? London is one of the greenest cities in the world.
- luuundonjk 5mo agoI'm talking about trees on sidewalks and streets, not about parks.
- pm215 5mo agoThe city government tracks data on public realm trees, and has a nice map based visualization of it: https://www.london.gov.uk/programmes-and-strategies/environment-and-climate-change/parks-green-spaces-and-biodiversity/trees-and-woodlands/london-tree-map https://www.london.gov.uk/programmes-and-strategies/environm... and if you zoom in you'll see that many of these are streetside trees. Personally I have always felt that most Japanese cities are very devoid of urban greenery compared to UK towns and cities.
