I kind of doubt that yards and gardens are common among the average residences of theses cities. I don't think they're willing and/or able to implement solutions similar to how I imagine your situation. It sounds very nice, though, and I hope I'm wrong.

    My point, i guess i was trying to get at, is that the difference between concrete jungles and natural greenspaces is obvious even in this microcosm of my own.

    I am surrounded by asphalt and concrete and highways.

    I rent. And convinced the landlord to let me make the green space more natural.

    I know I'm an outlier and fortunate. So i do whatever i can for my fellow creatures and plantlife.
