Activity 1 : Brussels, Europe's greenest capital?
Brussels, Europe's greenest capital?
As reported in this press article from RTBF, Brussels is said to be the 'greenest' capital in Europe. Is that really the case? And what exactly does it mean? If we're talking about the presence of trees, the Sonian Forest, located partly within the Brussels-Capital Region, and the inner city blocks made up of private gardens that are inaccessible to the public, Brussels can indeed be considered a very green city! However, if we take a closer look at biodiversity, soil and air quality, and Brussels' environmental policies, the picture may be more nuanced...
In this section, we will look at aspects relating to nature in the city, biodiversity and green spaces, as well as the relationship between the inhabitants of Brussels and their environment.
