12 Feb China’s Groundbreaking Plan To Create The World’s First “Forest City” Will Be Completed By 2020

In 2018, it is of the utmost importance that we devise more initiatives to lower dangerously high levels of pollution. But in a world where most of us drive cars and purchase factory-made products, this is a challenge.

Luckily, the urgency of the situation has forced political leaders to take action, for example, enforcing a fee on plastic bags in grocery stores in certain countries.

And now an even more revolutionary idea has been devised in order to fight pollution, and it involves creating the world’s very first “Forest City”. And trust me, the term “Forest City” is no exaggeration as the intention is that it will be a vision of all things green when it is completed.

It is currently being constructed in Liuzhou, Guangxi Province, China, and was designed by Italian architect, Stefano Boeri Architetti.

The goal is that Liuzhou Forest City, which will span 175 hectares, will eventually have the capacity to home 30,000 people. It will contain approximately 100 million plants of over 100 different species and 40,000 trees.
