With sustainability and green living becoming increasingly prominent in contemporary life, TravelBird said they’re sharing this study in order to further the dialogue around sustainable tourism.

The results recognise the cities making large efforts to be sustainable by preserving ecological areas, as well as those introducing initiatives to improve the quality and quantity of man-made green spaces.
