Resumo

Objetivo: Examinar a atitude dos residentes em relação às árvores urbanas a partir da perspectiva de financiamento ou contribuição voluntária de tempo. A maioria da população global vive em cidades, daí o aumento na expectativa por comunidades habitáveis, sustentáveis ​​e mais verdes, inclusive na Nigéria. Com planejamento e gestão adequados, as cidades podem se tornar mais habitáveis, mas a rápida perda de grandes áreas verdes urbanas causa estragos e tem levado a vários problemas climáticos, redução da qualidade da água e do ar, entre outros. Metodologia: Uma pesquisa por questionário buscou entender como os residentes avaliam os benefícios das árvores, bem como a vontade individual de apoiar iniciativas de conservação, tendo a metropole de Benin (Nigéria) como estudo de caso. Resultados: Usando a análise logit binária, o estudo identificou que os residentes que estão cientes dos serviços do ecossistema, tinham uma profissão e passaram pelo menos 20 anos na cidade, tiveram uma relação significativa com a vontade pessoal de oferecer tempo voluntário e / ou doar dinheiro para programas urbanos para o cuidado das árvores. Contribuição para o conhecimento: Forneceu informações quantitativas para demonstrar a importância da conservação de árvores em projetos de desenvolvimento para atender aos ODS Globais.
