  1. Best #GreenCities: 12 Greenest Cities In The World And Why - #UnityEnvironmentalUniversity (formerly #UnityCollege)

    March 6, 2024

    "What Makes A City Green?

    "What are green cities? A green city is a city that actively works to foster the health and #WellBeing of its people and the #NaturalEnvironment. Often, we look at government policies, community practices, and infrastructure to determine whether a city is 'green' or not.

    "However, the greenness of a city actually exists on a spectrum and is multi-faceted. There is no such thing as the greenest city. The greenest cities in the world are those that are doing more to be sustainable when compared to other cities. The greenness of a city includes the following factors and more:

    - The availability of #GreenSpaces
    - #PublicTransportation options
    - #Bikeability
    - #RenewableEnergy options
    - #CarbonFootprint
    - #Recycling programs

    "What Makes A University Green?

    "An #EcoFriendly city and an eco-friendly university have a lot in common, including #sustainable buildings, #CommunityFarms and #gardens, and #EthicallySourced goods. For Unity Environmental University, an essential part of going green was completely divesting from #FossilFuels and investing in renewable clean energy instead. Ultimately, being a green university is about prioritizing sustainability as a core value and guiding principle for the institution.

    "12 Greenest Cities In The World

    "#Urban areas around the world are striving to become more environmentally friendly as we continue to grapple with the negative effects of climate change. Many of the world’s greenest cities focus on mitigating those effects by minimizing their carbon footprint, shifting to renewable sources for energy, and improving public transportation. Other cities are taking innovative approaches to integrating green spaces and urban farming.

    "This list of the top 12 greenest cities is the result of a holistic review of the most environmentally friendly urban areas in the world. They are not listed in any particular order."

  17. The #30daymapchallenge is back! 🎉

    Let´s dive directly into #Day1 with a classic map with points created by our colleague Sebastian Block:

    🚲 Bicycle parking in Heidelberg 🚲

    Improving cities' #bikeability is about more than creating bike lanes. Part of it is having a safe place to lock your bike. This map uses #OSM data to show the locations and capacity of bike parking locations in #Heidelberg. The Neuenheimer Feld campus is a hotspot for bike parking, as well as the main train station.
