Calgary to green the city: Planting 10,000 trees

 

 

 

The Calgary City Council is planning to plant 10,000 new trees as part of a plan to increase the city's green space. This massive project is being implemented with the aim of increasing the city's 'urban canopy'. Two trees will be provided to each household.

These trees will help combat the increasing heat and provide shade. They will improve air quality by absorbing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. New habitats will be created for birds and other living things. Greener parks and public spaces will provide a way for city residents to have a mental break.

The trees will be planted mainly in schools, public spaces and various communities. Calgary aims to become a model in sustainable development through this initiative. The municipality has requested residents to participate in caring for the planted trees. The core of this project is to build a greener city for future generations.
