Today the Taipei metropolitan area is twice the size of Paris, but even when you include the Yangming National Park and the Mucha mountain districts, it has only 2.47 square meters of green space for every city resident, less than one tenth the figure in Paris. And forget Western cities; Taipei can't even match up to most Asian cities.
至於今天的台北市，已開闢的公園綠地面積，包括陽明山國家公園與木柵山區，和巴黎相較之下，台北土地面積是巴黎的兩倍多，平均每個人分到的綠地二．四七平方公尺，只有巴黎人的五分之一不到，別說無法與歐美城市相比，也落後大部分的亞洲城市。
