Planting more trees is, for me, one of those no-brainers if I were in city management. Trees not only improve air quality, reduce pollution, reduce flooding damages, and cool down the temperature, they also create a more beautiful atmosphere. A for me very unexpected but positive surprise has been the recent development of Paris. I usually come there several times per year for different events and it has undergone an amazing transformation in recent years thanks to its Climate Plan. It was originally published in 2007, but in 2018 Mayor Anne Hidalgo has given it the update that really pushed things forward. She wants to plant 170.000 trees by 2026 and what that results in can be beautifully seen in the picture below. It is the Rue du Docteur Paquelin in the 20th arrondissement for those that want to check it in person, it is not photoshopped. The Climate Plan includes turning schoolyards into green spaces, creating urban forests, and restoring overall biodiversity — making Paris greener, healthier, and more resilient for future generations. I want to give a massive shoutout here for a great sign of the positive impact politicians can have and would hope more mayors and cities follow suit. I personally think Paris has never been as attractive as it is now. Picture credits go to the Parisian photographer EmmanuelSPV and he shared more examples of the transformation online, so check him out.

We've planted 208,846,086 trees with Ecosia, but admittedly, never on a traffic circle 🌳 🙄 Amazing to see that yesterday Paris officially inaugurated a new urban forest and new urban park on a large traffic circle island! From 2022, a total of 4,000 square meters were unsealed on the Place de Catalogne, 470 trees and 16,000 shrubs were planted and new footpaths were be laid in and around the forest. Just in time for the Paris Olympics which are about to start soon! According to estimates, the new greenery on the island will reduce the local climate by up to 4 degrees Celsius in summer and thus make an important contribution to adapting to climate change. The trees and bushes also provide important shade and can hold more than half of the rainwater, thus reducing the risk of flooding during heavy rainfall. The new urban forest is a great example of successful health protection, successful climate adaptation and, above all, simply a masterpiece of ecological urban development 💚 #urbanplanning #trees #climateresiliance
