Parliamentary Panel Considers Tree Removal in Amman
The Parliamentary Committee on Environment and Climate in Jordan, chaired by Deputy Jihad Abouei, discussed the measures taken by Greater Amman Municipality regarding the removal of trees from sidewalks and their impact on the environment and urban life. The committee emphasized the importance of balancing pedestrian safety with the preservation of green spaces, with some recommending the development of a national guide for urban planting and a technical assessment of removal processes. They noted that the municipality visited and coordinated with agricultural and local administration institutions, conducting a survey of trees that resulted in the removal of approximately 60 trees and the planting of 125,000 trees suited to the city's climate conditions. The recommendations also highlighted the importance of maintaining vegetation cover and developing a green belt around the city to help reduce pollution and improve air quality, while considering safety and traffic movement requirements.
