• Key evidence revealed a temperature reduction of up to 3 degrees Celsius in areas with dense vegetation.
• Analysis included temperature measurements across different urban areas, considering various vegetation types and structures.
• Findings suggest that increasing urban greenery could promote cooler environments, beneficial for urban planning.
