Italy's fashion capital is gray — not only because of the blocks of stone buildings,but also due to its

often-gray sky, which traps pollution. ButMilannow wants to change it.

The city has an ambitious plan to plant 3 million new trees by 2030 - a move that experts say could offer relief

from the city's hot weather. Some projects have already contributed to environmental improvements. Architect

Stefano Boeri’s Vertical Forest residential (居民的) tower, completed in 2014, aims to improve not only air quality

but the quality of life for Milan residents. Boeri created a smallisland of greenery in the heart ofMilan, filling every

balcony with plants that absorb carbon dioxide.

“I think forestation is one of the best chances that we have today. It is one of the most effective ways we have

to fight climate change, because everyone can plant trees, Boeri said.

Damiano Di Simine, a member of the environmental group Legambiente , said the greenMilanproject will

lower temperatures in a city where the nighttime temperature can be 6 degrees Celsius higher than in the

surrounding area. City show thatMilanexperiences 35 hot nights a year. Because the city lies close to theAlps, Milin

gets very little wind to lower the city's temperatures. "Planting trees will help this," Di said.

TheVerticalForesthas attracted more than 20 species of birds. And the shade provided by the 800 trees and

15,000 plants means that residents rarely have to put on air conditioning, even in hot summers.

TheVerticalForest's total greenery- can absorb 30 metric tons of carbon dioxide every year. The presence of green

trees has a very important effect on people's health and psychological state, as has already been proved.
