Greener streets, better air quality with improving quality of lige
This is far from being a new idea, but nevertheless is worth mentioning. If we want to tackle air quality due to pollution why not using empty building walls or pillars on raised roads to do a green walls? These green walls would work as air filters, reducing air pollution within the city using spaces which have no use.
We should be covering all empty spaces with vertical gardens with plants known to capture pollution to improve air quality. By using this empty spaces (which have no use at all) we can increase the green coverage within the city. I like to think this is a win win situation.
Please upvote this idea if you like it ;)
