I assume you’re talking about cities where it’s baking sun and so too hot to walk. One problem. Trees don’t like that either and so need artificial irrigation. Plus trees tend to do lots of damage to drains and sewers as their roots seek water. Generally trees and cities aren’t a great mix except in certain areas (green spaces which are maintained).
Are you speaking as an American or a European? Because I generally think American cities are hostile to anything except cars (being built after cars) and European cities are hostile to cars (being built before cars).
I’ve seen videos of people regreening deserts and it was kinda cool. They like carve out a U shape and plant things that work for the type of environment and it keeps water longer.
I know that wasn’t your point and it’s a complete non-sequitur but I enjoyed the vid.
