Part 4/8:
Climate Mitigation: Mini forests effectively sequester carbon. As trees thrive, they absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, contributing to lessening climate change impacts. Mature trees boast the cooling power equivalent to several air conditioners, a necessity in urban settings experiencing heat waves.
Water Management: Through their permeable soil and vegetation structures, mini forests absorb and retain water, reducing flood risks and enhancing local water quality. This capability is particularly important given the increasing droughts and flooding scenarios that urban areas face.
