Abstract
This paper examines ways in which urban greening techniques, such as rain gardens, parks, micro-mobility measures, etc. might not serve entire communities, even gentrifying them in some cases. It addresses the following research question: how have urban greening techniques excluded marginalized groups from ecological services and gentrified low-income neighborhoods in the United States? Lastly, recommendations for how to improve access to ecological services provided by urban greening techniques are made.
