Air Quality Action Plan 2027 - 2032
Topic 8. Green Infrastructure and Urban Greening
Green spaces and infrastructure can be an effective means of reducing the impacts of air pollution. Providing breaks in urbanised spaces, a physical barrier to the movement of some pollutants (particulate matter), and as locations that can accommodate people, while excluding the most common sources of pollution, green spaces provide value for maintaining the health of the populations around them.
The Air Quality Action Plan 2027-2032 proposes the following actions within this topic:
| 37. Improve and expand existing green spaces |
| 38. Plant strategically to block air pollution |
