Improving the distribution of green spaces in Barcelona could prevent 178 premature deaths each year, says study
90% Informative
Green Corridors plan envisioned that every third street in Barcelona would become a green corridor.
Green spaces are associated with a number of benefits for physical and mental health and well-being, including a decrease in premature mortality.
In months when heat waves occur, urban trees and gardens would help prevent another five temperature-related deaths.
Green corridors would mean a 3.64% increase in the area devoted to green space in Barcelona .
PDUM interventions are more localized and are not distributed equitably throughout the city.
This can be explained by the fact that only the people who live closest to those points could benefit from them.
ISGlobal 's scientific team is conducting a study with the same methodology to assess the impact on mortality of the Green Roofs project.
