Important changes in the quality of the urban environment have occurred in Europe in the last few decades. Despite the progress achieved in controlling local air and water pollution, urban areas show increasing signs of environmental stress. Major concerns for European cities are the quality of air, acoustic quality and traffic congestion. Open spaces and green areas are under continuous threat due to more competitive uses of limited land resources.
