Экология Москвы.
Экология Москвы тесно связана с природными условиями Подмосковья. Важнейшее значение имеет так называемый “западный перенос” – преобладание в течение года ветров западных румбов. Важным фактором улучшения экосистемы города является сохранение и развитие скверов, парков и деревьев внутри дворов, значительно пострадавших в последние годы от точечной застройки.
Более десяти лет производится массовое газонокошение практически всех зелёных территорий, которое приводит к полному уничтожению всех молодых деревьев и кустарников. С течением времени в этот процесс вовлекаются всё новые и новые территории. Ландшафт таких участков имеет характерный вид: старые деревья на фоне травы высотой не более 2 – 3 см и практически полное отсутствие растительности промежуточного размера. Если эта практика будет и дальше продолжаться, то через десять лет Москва лишится практически всех деревьев, так как нарушен процесс их естественного омоложения.
