The Benefits of Green Corridors

Connected green corridors provide many benefits:

· Health and safety—promoting walking, cycling, and other active pursuits.

· Greenhouse gas reduction—reducing automobile use and related emissions.

· Environmental justice—expanding access to parks and destinations for those without cars.

· Support for native plants and wildlife—preserving and linking green spaces.

· Community and economic development—increasing property values, encouraging local business activity, and attracting visitors and tourism.

All of this contributes to a more mobile, healthier, safer, and greener environment—and to a better quality of life for individuals and communities.
