Qatar National Development Strategy
Doha has grown exponentially [...] but the capital lacks the benefits that
urban green spaces [...] sidewalks, bicycle lanes and tree-filled
areas closed to automobile traffic ... Urban conditions over time would become
more crowded, and more subject to noise and pollution. Bringing a green
dimension to urban planning could strengthen sustainability
and make cities more liveable. The risk of respiratory disease and the
strain of congested and sedentary living patterns would diminish for future generations. Health
problems such as the high rates of obesity, heart disease and diabetes would
be lessened. The absence of green space is not inevitable.
