Urban greenery – The key to sustainable urban development
At IVL Swedish Environmental Research Institute, we conduct extensive research and innovation to develop and implement nature-based green solutions that contribute to creating attractive and healthy cities.
Urban greenery is essential for sustainable urban development. Through the thoughtful integration of green spaces in cities, we can improve air quality, mitigate heat stress, reduce flood risks, and enhance biodiversity.
We work extensively in the field of urban greening with, for example, evaluation of ecosystem services, impact on air quality, climate adaptation, urban cultivation, biodiversity and noise reduction. We participate in research projects focusing on urban greening and also offer services where we can evaluate and analyze the environmental benefits of blue-green solutions, as well as investigate which measures are appropriate in different situations. We also help companies set science-based climate and environmental targets.
