traffic. They even make the weather better because they make the air 3 一5 degrees cooler, and they stop strong winds.
Urban forests also have many good effects on people. They make the city more beautiful. In a crowded area, they give people a place to relax and spend time in nature. _(48)In some countries, people are starting new urban forests.

Walking and bicycle clubs use the forest, and there are programs for children and artists.___(49)
