Show me the money! Associations between tree canopy and hospital costs in cities for cardiovascular disease events in a longitudinal cohort study of 110,134 participants by Xiaoqi Feng, Michael Navakatikyan, Simon Eckermann, Thomas Astell-Burt

“…In conclusion, this longitudinal study is among the first to analyse measured healthcare cost data in relation to urban green space in general, and with differentiation between major types of greenery relevant to urban planning policies in cities around the world. In sum, this study advances an increasingly important and international focus of research by reporting on the lower burden of CVD and fewer associated hospitalisations stemming from upstream investments that protect and restore urban tree canopy, which not only translates into substantial reduced costs for the health sector, but also helps to create regenerative cities and flourishing communities.…”

Effects of increasing the degree of building height asymmetry on ventilation and pollutant dispersion within street canyons by Kwang Song Jon, Song Il Jong, Sung Hyok Ri, Ju Yon Ko, Sung Gi Ko, Hun Kim, Tok Song Ryang, Chung Hyok Sin

“…Notably, the ventilation capacity is very low for step-down canyons with BHR = 4/3, and for step-down canyons with BHR ≥ 2/1, the ventilation capacity and pollutant removal capacity increase significantly with the increase of DBHA. Therefore, in urban planning, step-down canyons with BHR = 4/3 should be avoided and designed to satisfy the condition of BHR ≥ 2/1. …”
