This chapter calls for policy tools to address gentrification and displacement through one of the most recently discussed and complex lenses of gentrification: green and climate gentrification. Those processes are directly related to residential physical and sociocultural displacement and insecure housing conditions - with demonstrated health impacts - among socially or racially underprivileged residents impacted both by poor environmental conditions and climate exposure on the one hand and by the exclusionary dynamics of greening and resilience projects on the other hand. Policy solutions for gentrification and displacement, particularly green or climate gentrification, must incorporate the nuanced understanding of historical and regional planning legacies in local environmental and climate action. Moreover, this chapter asserts that the prescription of urban housing justice policy tools as well as urban greening justice policy tools simultaneously can support holistic health and wellbeing outcomes.
