The world is grappling with a triple global crisis: climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution. Urbanization is at the epicenter of this nexus. According to the World Bank, as of 2019, over 55% of the global population resided in urban areas, with projections indicating a rise to 68% by 2050. Over 90% of urban growth is occurring in the developing world, adding an estimated 70 million new residents to urban areas each year. This rapid urban growth not only fuels the climate crisis through increased emissions but also exacerbates biodiversity loss and pollution challenges. Green spaces in urban areas play a pivotal role in mitigating these crises by sequestering carbon, supporting urban biodiversity, and acting as pollution buffers. Yet, with the swelling urban populace, access to these green lifelines becomes more strained. Furthermore, the World Health Organization has highlighted that 9 out of 10 people breathe air containing high levels of pollutants, making the establishment and conservation of urban green spaces paramount. Recognizing the urgency underscored by these global challenges, ParkPals aims to bridge urbanites with city parks, promoting sustainable habits and fostering community wellness in the face of rapid urban sprawl. Through its initiatives, ParkPals directly contributes to addressing the triple global crisis by rejuvenating urban green spaces.
