Urban Greening - TSV

Urban greening refers to comprehensive initiatives to secure and expand green spaces in densely populated areas, aiming to mitigate heat island effects, conserve biodiversity, and improve living environments. It encompasses three main approaches: rooftop greening, wall greening, and park development. Mandatory regulations and subsidy systems have been established, particularly in Tokyo. Its importance is growing from the perspectives of climate change countermeasures and SDGs, making it a core policy for sustainable urban development.
