Painting the town green
Description
Many modern towns are groaning under the weight of cars and concrete, creating an urban landscape where trees and green spaces are rare. However, it is possible to overturn this trend in order to create more space for nature at the heart of our towns and improve the quality of life. This is what Michel Labrecque (Montreal, Quebec), Geoffrey Cape (Toronto, Ontario) and Lindsay Cole (Vancouver, British Columbia) are trying to achieve.
