Urban Planning, Greening, and Biodiversity

Expanding green cover, protecting biodiversity, and integrating nature-based solutions in urban planning.

Climate Targets

Key goals for increasing green cover and protecting biodiversity across all 369 wards.

Ward-Level Tracking

Greening and biodiversity targets are tracked at the ward level across all 369 wards to ensure equitable access to green spaces.

369 Wards Monitored

Each ward reports on green cover percentage, number of trees planted, park area, biodiversity hotspots, and nature-based solutions implemented. Ward-level data will be updated annually using satellite imagery and ground surveys to track progress toward 2030 targets.

Data Collection Status: Green cover mapping using satellite data underway. First ward-level reports expected Q3 2026.

Key Actions Being Taken

Initiatives and programs driving progress toward greening and biodiversity targets.

Million Tree Campaign

Planting native species along roads, in parks, and vacant lands with community participation.

Miyawaki Forests

Creating dense micro-forests in every ward using native species for biodiversity conservation.

Neighborhood Parks

Developing and maintaining at least one accessible park in every ward within 500m walking distance.

Green Roofs and Walls

Incentivizing vertical gardens and rooftop greening for buildings with tax rebates.

Biodiversity Monitoring

Citizen science programs to track flora and fauna in urban ecosystems and protected areas.
