@konah619: Singapore is quietly turning hot streets into shady green corridors. 🌳 Since 2020, the National Parks Board has led the OneMillionTrees movement. The goal is one million more trees by 2030. Officials have said they could reach it as early as 2027. Researchers at Cambridge CARES in Singapore found street shade cooled the air by about 0.8 degrees Celsius. 🌡️ Modeling studies linked to the National University of Singapore and ETH Zurich also suggest trees can cut air conditioning energy use. That matters in a city where cooling runs all day. Shade truly changes how a street feels. Imagine walking home in the heat and finally stepping into shade. 😊 Could your city do the same? 📌 Sources: National Parks Board Singapore, World Economic Forum, Cambridge CARES Singapore, National University of Singapore and ETH Zurich Future Cities Lab
