A new analysis has revealed that many suburbs in Brisbane have substantial tree cover that keeps the Sunshine State’s hot, sunny days at bay. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nearmap did an aerial survey of more than 5,000 suburbs across Australia from February to March 2021 and determined the top nine leafiest locations in Brisbane. Bardon tops the list in the inner city with 34 per cent more tree cover than other suburbs in the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Region<\/em><\/strong><\/td>Top Suburb by Region<\/em><\/strong><\/td>Percentage Tree Cover<\/em><\/strong><\/td><\/tr>

According to the report from Nearmap<\/a>, 79 per cent of suburbs in Greater Brisbane have over 20 per cent tree cover. That’s more than Hobart (71 per cent), Darwin (66 per cent), Canberra (58 per cent), Greater Sydney (44 per cent), Melbourne (30 per cent), Adelaide (26 per cent), and Perth (22 per cent).\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cr Tracy Davis, Brisbane City Council’s environment chairperson, said that efforts to plant more trees in Brisbane every year since 2016 have increased the natural habitat by nearly 40 per cent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tree planting activities also netted 14,000 street trees a year in heaps of residential locations. These provided shade and breeze in footpaths and parks, as well reduced the energy consumption in many homes.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Urban trees produce more oxygen and consume more carbon dioxide, reducing the pollution in the air. Trees become food for wildlife, giving Brisbane its natural structure and subtropical character.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Years before the initiative, more than two million trees have been planted for a greener Brisbane between 2008 to 2012. Council targets a 50 per cent increase of tree covers in bus stops, bikeways, boulevards, and major entry roads by 2031<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Brisbane\u2019s urban forest removes about 1.45 million tonnes of carbon dioxide per year (equalling 10% of our city\u2019s emissions),” per Council. “Our tree canopy cover makes leafy parts of Brisbane up to seven degrees cooler than treeless areas.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
