Blockchain is a new and revolutionary technology in the world’s management systems. The blockchain network allows individuals, governments, and organizations to implement any transaction securely on this network. With the Internet of Things expansion and the emergence of the Internet of Vehicles, green smart cities, and integration of these technologies with the blockchain network, human life quality has increased. However, new technical and environmental challenges have emerged by combining IoV applications with the blockchain network in expanding green smart cities. This article examines the concepts and advantages of the blockchain network, and then the applications of IoV in green smart cities are analyzed. Then the technical and environmental challenges of IoV are discussed, and finally, solutions for the environmental and technical challenges are presented.}, number={1}, journal={Anthropogenic Pollution}, publisher={OICC Press}, author={Salami, Yashar and Taherkhani, Fahimeh and Ebazadeh, Yaser and Nemati, Morteza and Khajehvand, Vahid and Zeinali, Esmaeil}, year={2023}, month={Nov.}, keywords={Energy, Blockchain, Green Smart City, IoV} }
