Introduction There is little evidence investigating the association between green space (exposure and inequality) active transportation during COVID-19 pandemic. This study focused on spatial heterogeneity in trajectories of different modes pandemic worldwide, as well exposure inequality from a global perspective. Methods was based an ecological design used three Apple Mobility indices (driving, walking public transit) to evaluate 299 cities across 46 countries. Green calculated fine-resolution population mappings. by incorporating Gini index into (green index). The hot/cold spot analysis explore while Gaussian mixed models were model transportation. Results shows that there inequalities worldwide showed positively associated with (Coef.=46.82; SE=18.20), (Coef.=58.88; SE=26.87) transit (Coef.=162.07; SE=80.16). Also, effect varied city development levels, stringency policy severity. Conclusions Our findings demonstrate importance sufficient city-scale spaces support transportation, important implications help better prepare for future pandemics non-pandemic times.

This paper explores the significance of ecosystem functions in maintaining health and balance ecological systems, particularly context planning, managing, trees landscape settings. It emphasises multifaceted relationship between humans trees, encompassing cultural, ecological, economic, emotional connections, underscores value traditional knowledge alongside empirical science. By combining these two ways knowing, along with social science insights into human well-being, future landscapes can be crafted to sustainable, diverse, functional. As urbanisation continues shape globally, urban planners face challenge managing rapidly changing environments. Urban forestry arboriculture have emerged address challenges, aiming enhance environmental quality well-being. The concept Nature-based Solutions (NbS) has gained traction, recognising importance integrating natural systems planning challenges while preserving functional ecosystems. advocates for an enhanced understanding tree ecology navigate complex relations people, their calls interdisciplinary collaboration, research, education inform policy, assess impacts, widen approaches management. monitoring collaborating across disciplines, arboriculturists foresters resilient practices conservation sustainable development. In conclusion, management is essential ensuring health, resilience, sustainability populations ecosystems they inhabit. embracing a holistic environments, professionals contribute shaping that support both well-being biodiversity.
