Oslo Tops World’s Most Sustainable Cities
Dutch company Arcadis recently released the 2022 edition of its Sustainable Cities Index, which judges and ranks 100 cities on how sustainable they are. Each city is evaluated according to 51 metrics, which range from levels of pollution and the number of green spaces to the quality and greenness of public transport. And top of Arcadis’s study this year is Oslo. The Norwegian capital is praised for its exceptionally green public transport system, abundance of leafy spaces, low energy usage and clean air. The city both topped the overall ranking and came top for environmental sustainability. Following Oslo is Stockholm, which ranks well not just because of its green credentials but also because of its social sustainability. Stockholm apparently has low income inequality, a healthy work-life balance and a good healthcare system. Third comes Tokyo, largely thanks to its low levels of crime and fab transport network. Other countries in top 10 following Tokyo are Copenhagen, Denmark, Berlin, Germany,London, UK,. Seattle, USA,. Paris, France, San Francisco, USA and on tenth Amsterdam, Netherlands.
