Growing a cooler city in Colombia

After enduring years of high crime and violence, Medellín faces a new threat –  rising urban temperatures, driven by climate change. The city’s response brings people together, planting vegetation to create a better environment for everyone. The Green Corridors project shades cyclists and pedestrians, cools built up areas and cleans the air along busy roads.
