São Paulo's Jardim Botânico and Cidade Universitária air quality benefits from the substantial USP university forest reserve providing a meaningful clean-air buffer against the broader metropolitan pollution. Vehicle emissions from the surrounding Marginal Pinheiros highway corridor are the primary local concern, while the extensive Atlantic Forest fragments in the USP campus and botanical garden generally maintain better conditions than the dense surrounding metropolitan areas throughout the year.
