As Madrid begins an ambitious renovation of hundreds of streets, the potent smell of newly laid asphalt is overwhelming some areas. Authorities have come up with what they thought was a winning idea to tackle the issue - make the road surface mango-scented. While the fruity fragrance is effective in disguising the odour of fresh tarmac, residents are both baffled and unimpressed. Taking to social media, madrileños questioned why the city council didn’t just plant real fruit trees, given they also mitigate the soaring temperatures in summer. In the last two years, the city council has cut down ...

Global tree loss would have been much higher without improvements in Brazil and Colombi...

Washington D.C. is famed for its iconic springtime cherry blossoms. But 100 of them - including the social media phenomenon ‘Stumpy’ - are destined to be chopped down. It's part of a multiyear restoration of their Tidal Basin home, which is being battered by climate change - from rising sea levels to rising temperatures. Crumbling seawall creates flooding risks for cherry trees. Starting in early summer, crews will begin working to replace the crumbling seawall around the Tidal Basin, the area around the Jefferson Memorial with the highest concentration of cherry trees. The work has been long ...

Timber theft, a profitable business, is on the increase in French forests. The gendarmes of Yvelines are tracking down looters, who are responsible for ecological disasters. A forest that existed just a few months ago has been nearly completely eradicated. In Septeuil, located in the Yvelines department, authorities have been probing into the theft of wood for more than a year. The thieves cut the trunks themselves in the surrounding forests. "The type of trees that have been cut down are the beautiful, healthy ones, and what's left are the thin, sickly ones", points out Gabriel Ducrest, comma...
