	<p>'''Green spaces''' in Venice (''verde pubblico'' when publicly owned) are vegetated areas within the urban landscape, ranging from expansive public parks to small street-side planters. Within Venice, these spaces serve two primary purposes: '''environmental health''', by mitigating the urban heat island effect and filtering air pollutants, and '''human well-being''', by providing residents and visitors with areas for social interaction, exercise, and mental relaxation.</p>		<p>'''Green spaces''' in Venice (''verde pubblico'' when publicly owned) are vegetated areas within the urban landscape, ranging from expansive public parks to small street-side planters.
