[Christian Albert @DrChrAlbert]

How accessible are urban greenspaces? 🌳🚵 Drawing on a case study, Weber et al. find that it differs between age groups & nature qualities considered. Future #landscapeplanning will benefit from disaggregated information to enhance #EnvironmentalJustice ➡️https://t.co/sSD6VKLyDD

60% of EU surface water bodies are in poor ecological status.
In the next decade, the EU Green Deal, ecosystem restoration targets​ and the 8th Environmental Action Program of EU Environment, will focus on addressing this issue. For more information: https://t.co/6PsyVnMDup
