Abstract

The paper tackles a very interesting and relevant question about the environmental and health impact of urban forests i.e how human-led greening of urban areas affects well-being through its impact on pollution and pollen. The paper's strength lies in bringing together several data sources with high spatial resolution and decomposing the policy impact into vegetation density and greenery, air quality and finally health. Moreover the discussion on health and environment trade off is also new and insightful. The main critique is that claims of causality in the paper are not substantiated within the current estimation framework. However, I believe with the excellent data sources available to the authors this can be addressed in the future.
