By considering both, this study contributes to the literature. The inhabitants' perception of the importance of ESs/EDSs is assessed through a survey in two Portuguese cities facing extreme climatic events. "Heat reduction" and "contact with nature" are the most perceived ESs while "risk of fire" and "excessive water consumption" are the most perceived EDSs, respectively, in Elvas and Faro. Using rank-ordered logistic regression models, this study finds that the relevance of ESs/EDSs is perceived differently throughout the different areas of the cities, with Elvas revealing the highest signs of environmental injustice, since the importance of ESs is perceived differently by the inhabitants, specifically those inhabiting impoverished areas. The inhabitants perceiving heatwaves acknowledge less relevance to some ESs and more relevance to several EDSs. Gender, age, and income affect the perceived relevance of some ESs/EDSs, signalling intersectional injustice.engEnvironmental justiceIntersectional justiceGreen infrastructureEcosystem disservicesPerception of inhabitantsClimate change adaptationjournal article10.1080/09640568.2023.2286927
