If your neighbourhood also has 30 per cent canopy cover, then it will pass what is known as the &#8220;3-30-300&#8221; access to nature test. But according to new research, most major cities studied do not reach that &#8220;bare minimum&#8221; standard \u2014 and Melbourne and Sydney are among them.<\/p>\n<p>The research by RMIT University, in collaboration with the Technical University of Munich, analysed more than 2.5 million buildings across eight cities globally. Based on the 3-30-300 rule, devised by Dutch urban forestry expert Cecil Konijnendijk, the study found most of the cities failed international tree canopy goals. The guidelines state that every house, school and workplace should have a view of at least three trees, be in a neighbourhood with at least 30 per cent canopy cover, and be within 300 metres of high-quality public green space.<\/p>\n<p>The study, published in Nature Communications, found only Singapore and Seattle passed the 30 per cent canopy benchmark. Seattle passed with 45 per cent of buildings enjoying adequate shade. In Singapore, 75 per cent of buildings were shaded. Just 3 per cent of buildings in Melbourne&#8217;s innermost suburbs had sufficient neighbourhood canopy cover despite 44 per cent having views of at least three trees, the study found. And across central Sydney, at least three trees were visible from 84 per cent of buildings, but only 17 per cent had &#8220;enough&#8221; shade. New York and Amsterdam both scored almost 0 per cent for canopy cover despite 92 per cent and 50 per cent of buildings respectively having views of at least three trees.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.abc.net.au\/news\/2024-11-20\/sydney-melbourne-cities-fail-tree-canopy-cover-study-green-space\/104614210\">ABC<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/6-621\/\">Sydney and Melbourne among major cities failing 3-30-300 tree canopy goals<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[16997,575,4263,3993],"class_list":["post-135514","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-canopy-goals","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-melbourne","tag-sydney"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135514","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=135514"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135514\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=135514"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=135514"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=135514"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
