UK could have its hottest day on record this week, with temperatures forecast over 40C.Trees planted strategically on main roads in the cities, living walls on buildings and vertical forests on skyscrapers help keep our cities cool and avoid the “urban heat island effects” caused by dense population, tall buildings, concrete pavements, and miles of roads.
As mentioned in The Guardian: “According to a UN definition, London can be classified as a forest, its 8.4 million trees – almost one for every person – adorning and detoxifying this great city.”
Enjoy these hot days responsibly by taking shade under our trees and drinking lots of water.
