Urban heat mitigation by green and blue infrastructure: Drivers, effectiveness, and future needs
The combination of urbanization and global warming leads to urban overheating and compounds the frequency and intensity of extreme heat events due to climate change. Yet, the risk of urban overheating can be mitigated by urban green-blue-grey infrastructure (GBGI), such as parks, wetlands, and engineered greening, which have the potential to effectively reduce summer air temperatures. Despite many reviews, the evidence bases on quantified GBGI co…
Quantifying the relationship between gardening and health and well-being in the UK: A survey during the covid-19 pandemic
Our results suggest that gardening in UK allotments and domestic gardens may promote different aspects of health and well-being via multiple mechanisms. Improving access to growing space and promoting regular gardening could provide a range of benefits to public health. More research on how socio-economic factors influence the health and well-being benefits of gardening will help policymakers devise strategies to maximise these benefits
“My little piece of the planet”: The multiplicity of well-being benefits from allotment gardening
Purpose Participation in urban horticulture (UH) is increasing in popularity, and evidence is emerging about the wide range of social and environmental benefits “grow your own” can also provide. UH can increase mental and physical well-being, as well as improve nature connectedness, social capital and community cohesion. Design/methodology/approach This study focusses on allotments, which is one of the dominant forms of UH that takes place in the…
