The story
Research reaching practice
The UK Air Quality Expert Group includes the coauthored green-roof review among the contextual reviews discussed in its assessment of vegetation and urban air pollution. The report brings research evidence and its limitations into a policy-facing synthesis.
The documented contribution
Section 4.1, printed page 15; reference page 31. The report explicitly notes limitations in quantifying policy-scale pollutant-concentration reductions. This case preserves that qualification rather than presenting a measured air-quality effect.
