Now as #COP26  is coming to an end, beware of a tsunami of greenwashing and media spin to somehow frame the outcome as “good”, “progress”, “hopeful” or “a step in the right direction”.

We agree with the need to slow down the pace in the city 🚲 Making them greener 💚🌳 and more sustainable is also a must. At CREAF we believe this and that's why we are researching Nature Based Solutions #NBS and #urbanforest.

#Trees. The option is not public transit or trees. It’s both: public transit AND trees, lots of trees. Citywide public transit & trees, less cars, more density, safe & enjoyable walking & riding bicycles to access BRTs, LRTs, and TREEs.
