Résumé
"This article presents an analysis of the distribution of green public spaces (GPS) in Mexico City as an urban environmental injustice case. Using spatial and demographic data, a Park Need Index (PNI) was calculated for the 16 boroughs of the city. Results show that distribution of GPS is directly correlated with demographic features usually present within low socioeconomic sectors of the city. Such findings align with the Environmental Justice Theory postulation that urban environmental amenities are inequitably distributed against marginal populations."
