Field Notes from Bucharest: How can we turn our cities greener in a smart way?
Have you heard about the 3-30-300 rule? Proposed by a Dutch researcher and later adopted by the EU as a quality standard for urban spaces, this benchmark requires 3 trees close to every home, a 30% neighborhood canopy cover, and a community green space within 300 meters.
When measured against these standards, Bucharest lags behind the EU averages of 42% green infrastructure and 30% canopy cover, sitting at 26% and 22% respectively. Discover more detailed local mappings via dianaculescu.ro, and let us know: where you live, how is the 3-30-300 rule being followed?
Short urban documentary by Andrei Nicoară.
Partners: Institute of Biology Bucharest, Faculty of Biology – University of Bucharest, 2Celsius, Projekt Atol, Zile și nopți
