Access to green space has enormous implications for the health and wellbeing of a community,
and green space issues in Durham are under covered. By 2050, 68% of the global population will live in cities . As cities become denser, environmental health issues like air pollution and the urban heat island effect will become more prevalent. One way to
improve the health of city residents is to have public green spaces available for residents to enjoy. Green space refers to outdoor areas covered with vegetation that are accessible to the public, such as parks, nature trails, green roofs, etc. A growing body
of research shows that access to green space reduces stress and boosts both mental and physical health . In fact, studies have shown that access to green spaces help people live longer . However, access to green space is not equal among all populations. A
report from The Center for American Progress and the Hispanic Access Foundation shows that BIPOC communities experience “nature deprivation” at three times the rate of white Americans . This translates to negative health effects for these communities.</font></span></div></div><div id="ydp4f940e84yahoo_quoted_8973924225" class="ydp4f940e84yahoo_quoted"><div style="color: rgb(38, 40, 42);"><div><div id="ydp4f940e84yiv5716073113"><div dir="ltr"><div class="ydp4f940e84yiv5716073113gmail_quote"><div class="ydp4f940e84yiv5716073113gmail_quote"><div lang="EN-US" style="word-wrap: break-word;">
