The tendency of the last 100 years shows the radical change of the proportion between urbanized areas and those dedicated to wild nature and agriculture. Whether we agree with it or not, cities are our future. Also it is confirmed by the annual reports of UNEP that cities are responsible for 75% of CO2 emissions.

Evaluation of the Monetary Value of Air Pollutants’ Reduction by Forests in South Korea
The economic value of forests as public goods is often underestimated. This study evaluates the public benefit of air quality improvement by forests in South Korea from 2014 to 2020. The monetary value of air quality improvement, particularly in five air
