Nature is an essential ally in the climate crisis: not only on a global scale, where certain ecosystems capture CO2, but also on the scale of a city like Brussels, to adapt to the effects of climate change.
The Climate Plan aims to make the City of Brussels a greener, more biodiversity-friendly place.
