The detrimental effects of environmental change on human and non-human diversity are acutely manifested in urban environments. While urban greenspaces are known to mitigate these effects and support functionally diverse ecological communities, evidence of the ecological outcomes of urban greening remains scarce.
We use a longitudinal observational design to provide empirical evidence of positive ecological changes brought about by greening actions.
