Well, actually it can, and this is why\u2026<\/p>\n<p><strong>Firstly though, there are two main interpretations of what constitutes an \u2018urban forest\u2019.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The first looks at the sum of all urban trees; including those situated in parks or in streets, on both private and public land, and also considers orchards, hedges and other green spaces across the urban area under consideration, to collectively make up an \u2018urban forest\u2019 (See <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/Urban-Forestry-Gene-W-Grey\/dp\/0894647040\">Grey and Deneke\u2019s Urban Forestry<\/a>, for example).<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-31833\" src=\"https:\/\/greenblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/St-Peters-Square-Manchester-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" srcset=\"https:\/\/greenblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/St-Peters-Square-Manchester-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/greenblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/St-Peters-Square-Manchester-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/greenblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/St-Peters-Square-Manchester-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/greenblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/St-Peters-Square-Manchester-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/greenblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/St-Peters-Square-Manchester-1200x675.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/greenblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/St-Peters-Square-Manchester.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 840px) 100vw, 840px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The second refers to the urban forest as individual units within an urban area and in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/Forests-Handbook-v-1\/dp\/0632048212\">Evans\u2019s Forest Handbook<\/a> is described thus, \u2018Urban forests can be defined by their placement in or near urban are-as\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>This second definition refers to distinct areas of woodland within an urban area as urban forest, the \u2018narrow\u2019 definition. Although not technically incorrect, in my view this is a less helpful concept as it separates out the \u2018urban\u2019 from the \u2018forest\u2019 and oversimplifies the spatial relationship between the two, implying that they can indeed be separated.<\/p>\n<p>I much prefer the broader definition given by <strong>Sands<\/strong> (in Forestry in a Global Context), which states;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">\u2018The urban forest is the ecosystem containing all of the trees, plants and associated animals in the urban environment, both in and around the city\u2019.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Deneke (in Grey and Deneke\u2019s Urban Forestry) goes so far as to say that \u2018cities are forests\u2019 and by the United Nations definition (land with tree crown cover of more than 10 percent and an area of more than 0.5 hectares) most cities and urban areas could indeed be classed as forests.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-30351\" src=\"https:\/\/greenblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Navy-Pier-20180706_170430-1024x641.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"840\" height=\"526\" srcset=\"https:\/\/greenblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Navy-Pier-20180706_170430-1024x641.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/greenblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Navy-Pier-20180706_170430-600x375.jpg 600w, https:\/\/greenblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Navy-Pier-20180706_170430-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/greenblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Navy-Pier-20180706_170430-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/greenblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Navy-Pier-20180706_170430-1200x751.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/greenblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Navy-Pier-20180706_170430.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 840px) 100vw, 840px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So, perhaps it\u2019s time that we should stop thinking about the trees in our towns, and actually consider the towns in our forests instead.
