In Amsterdam, residents can apply for the city to remove the pavement stones and prepare a narrow planting bed helping Dutch streets become greener, cooler and better prepared for heavy rain. #ActOnClimate #Smartcities #ClimateActionNow

The Green Farming REWE supermarket in Berlin Lankwitz is topped by a 2,760-square-metre glass rooftop farm, described by the company as Germany’s largest. Just a few metres above customers filling their shopping carts, rows of lettuce grow in a controlled hydroponic system #ActOnClimate #SmartCities

Since 1 March 2020, anyone in #Luxembourg has been able to board most trains, trams and public buses without purchasing a standard ticket. The small European nation became the first country to introduce free public transport across its entire territory. #publictransport #ActOnClimate #SmartCities

Bravo! #Paris Mayor #AnneHidalgo is not one to let critics or pessimists get in the way of her plan to transform the French capital from a polluted megacity into an oasis of urban sustainability. www.politico.eu/article/s…. #Seine #Heatwaves #SmartCities #ActOnClimate #swimming

Seine swimming pool opening gives Paris mayor another jewel in her green crown

Making the famed river swimmable is one of the final big projects Anne Hidalgo will inaugurate before she leaves office next year.

In a clever move to beat the heat, a small town in Spain has turned its rooftops into a giant reflective surface by painting them all white. This simple change has created a powerful cooling effect — lowering the town’s average summer temperature by nearly 5°C. #Heatwaves #SmartCities #ActOnClimate

Our car-dependent status quo is the result of political choices that have steered decades of financial-, spatial- and design decisions. It is time to repoliticize these decisions and reshape our public spaces. #SmartCities #ActOnClimate

Shenzhen, China’s tech hub, fully electrified its 16,000-strong bus fleet in 2017—7 years ago, even before COVID-19. By 2024, most are powered by renewables, sun and wind! With 17M people, it proves EVs + clean energy can drive sustainable urban living. ⚡🚌🌱 #EVRevolution #Renewables #SmartCities #EV

[1/8] Pascual Berrone, professeur à l’IESE Business School de l’Universidad de Navarra, analyse pourquoi les projets de « smart cities » technocentrés échouent. L’article montre que la technologie seule ne produit ni villes durables ni villes vivables. #geography #smartcities #sustainablecities
