摘要

One of the main messages to come out of last month's Urban Trees Research Conference in Birmingham was the need to make a quantified case to policy makers on the benefits of trees. And few make the case like the world's fourth most populous city, NewYork. Formerly a tree officer in London, Matthew Wells is now director of tree preservation at the city's Department of Parks & Recreation, which looks after the city's five million-plus trees across its five boroughs. New York is already a surprisinglygreen city, with nearly a quarter of its area under tree canopy, compared to Chicago's 11 per cent. But Wells says analysis by his department shows the potential to raise cover to 42 per cent — and has already made the case for this in financial terms.
