"With “green corridors” that mimic the natural forest, the Colombian city is driving down temperatures — and could become five degrees cooler over the next few decades.
In the face of a rapidly heating planet, the City of Eternal Spring — nicknamed so thanks to its year-round temperate climate — has found a way to keep its cool.
Previously, Medellín had undergone years of rapid urban expansion, which led to a severe urban heat island effect — raising temperatures in the city to significantly higher than in the surrounding suburban and rural areas. Roads and other concrete infrastructure absorb and maintain the sun’s heat for much longer than green infrastructure.
“Medellín grew at the expense of green spaces and vegetation,” says Pilar Vargas, a forest engineer working for City Hall. “We built and built and built. There wasn’t a lot of thought about the impact on the climate. It became obvious that had to change.”
Efforts began in 2016 under Medellín’s then mayor, Federico Gutiérrez (who, after completing one term in 2019, was re-elected at the end of 2023). The city launched a new approach to its urban development — one that focused on people and plants.
The $16.3 million initiative led to the creation of 30 Green Corridors along the city’s roads and waterways, improving or producing more than 70 hectares of green space, which includes 20 kilometers of shaded routes with cycle lanes and pedestrian paths.
These plant and tree-filled spaces — which connect all sorts of green areas such as the curb strips, squares, parks, vertical gardens, sidewalks, and even some of the seven hills that surround the city — produce fresh, cooling air in the face of urban heat. The corridors are also designed to mimic a natural forest with levels of low, medium and high plants, including native and tropical plants, bamboo grasses and palm trees.
Heat-trapping infrastructure like metro stations and bridges has also been greened as part of the project and government buildings have been adorned with green roofs and vertical gardens to beat the heat. The first of those was installed at Medellín’s City Hall, where nearly 100,000 plants and 12 species span the 1,810 square meter surface.
“It’s like urban acupuncture,” says Paula Zapata, advisor for Medellín at C40 Cities, a global network of about 100 of the world’s leading mayors. “The city is making these small interventions that together act to make a big impact.”
At the launch of the project, 120,000 individual plants and 12,500 trees were added to roads and parks across the city. By 2021, the figure had reached 2.5 million plants and 880,000 trees. Each has been carefully chosen to maximize their impact.
“The technical team thought a lot about the species used. They selected endemic ones that have a functional use,” explains Zapata.
The 72 species of plants and trees selected provide food for wildlife, help biodiversity to spread and fight air pollution. A study, for example, identified Mangifera indica as the best among six plant species found in Medellín at absorbing PM2.5 pollution — particulate matter that can cause asthma, bronchitis and heart disease — and surviving in polluted areas due to its “biochemical and biological mechanisms.”
And the urban planting continues to this day.
The groundwork is carried out by 150 citizen-gardeners like Pineda, who come from disadvantaged and minority backgrounds, with the support of 15 specialized forest engineers. Pineda is now the leader of a team of seven other gardeners who attend to corridors all across the city, shifting depending on the current priorities...
“I’m completely in favor of the corridors,” says [Victoria Perez, another citizen-gardener], who grew up in a poor suburb in the city of 2.5 million people. “It really improves the quality of life here.”
Wilmar Jesus, a 48-year-old Afro-Colombian farmer on his first day of the job, is pleased about the project’s possibilities for his own future. “I want to learn more and become better,” he says. “This gives me the opportunity to advance myself.”
The project’s wider impacts are like a breath of fresh air. Medellín’s temperatures fell by 2°C in the first three years of the program, and officials expect a further decrease of 4 to 5C over the next few decades, even taking into account climate change. In turn, City Hall says this will minimize the need for energy-intensive air conditioning...
In addition, the project has had a significant impact on air pollution. Between 2016 and 2019, the level of PM2.5 fell significantly, and in turn the city’s morbidity rate from acute respiratory infections decreased from 159.8 to 95.3 per 1,000 people [Note: That means the city's rate of people getting sick with lung/throat/respiratory infections.]
There’s also been a 34.6 percent rise in cycling in the city, likely due to the new bike paths built for the project, and biodiversity studies show that wildlife is coming back — one sample of five Green Corridors identified 30 different species of butterfly.
Other cities are already taking note. Bogotá and Barranquilla have adopted similar plans, among other Colombian cities, and last year São Paulo, Brazil, the largest city in South America, began expanding its corridors after launching them in 2022.
“For sure, Green Corridors could work in many other places,” says Zapata."

A Cost-Effective Alternative: Exploring Laminate Flooring
A popular and adaptable flooring option that is less expensive than hardwood or tile is laminate flooring. It is composed of many layers, usually a core layer of compressed fiberboard or resin, a decorative layer with a high-resolution picture of wood, stone, or other patterns, and a tough melamine wear layer. Under intense pressure and heat, these layers are fused together to produce a solid and robust flooring material. The ability of laminate flooring to approximate the appearance of natural materials without the added expense and upkeep is one of its primary benefits. The decorative layer offers a variety of design alternatives to suit different home designs. It may accurately imitate the appearance of hardwood, ceramic tiles, or even actual stone.

Increase Your Home’s Resale Value By Revamping the Flooring
Anyone who has been through the process of selling their home understands the overwhelming stress involved. Many pieces must come together to prepare a home to be shown to potential buyers. You will probably clear out the cluttered spaces of your house and attempt to stage rooms to show their best qualities to others.
All of these tasks accomplish the same goal of increasing the appeal and value of a home. However, one of the most important factors of a home’s value is glossed over easily in the rush of staging and cleaning. Do not make the mistake of leaving your home’s flooring an afterthought when selling your home.
Tumblr media
Potential buyers pay attention to the flooring in the houses they tour. Imagine it from their perspective. Updating the floors in a home you just bought is a big, unnecessary headache compared to investing in a move-in ready home. A house has more value to a buyer if they do not need to worry about replacing the floors.
Find out whether you need to revamp the flooring in your home before selling. There are many details to consider, including the size of the project and the style of floor used. You should also compare the cost versus the value of new flooring.
Essential flooring tips to increase value
Choose timber flooring before carpet
Do not mix and match flooring styles
Repair and refinish when possible
Tumblr media
Engineered flooring
Hardwood flooring incurs a lot of costs for supply, installation, and maintenance. If you are looking for the same real timber appearance without the price, engineered timber is an ideal option. Many engineered timber flooring can be installed with a quick and efficient floating floor method without compromising on stability and durability. The top layer is a beautiful and authentic timber veneer.
Engineered flooring might be the direction for your home if you have lower starting property value. Hardwood flooring will not impact your resale value as much, which means your return on investment could be negligible. A cheaper option with the same lovely look of timber is appealing for homey buyers and sellers.
Flooring 2 You has several excellent engineered timber ranges available.
Laminate flooring
Laminate is a hard flooring surface that provides durability and reliability for years in a house. Homebuyers want to see well-maintained, consistent flooring in a home before making an offer.
Consider the characteristics of a laminate flooring brand from the perspective of a buyer. As you pick one to replace the floors in your home, imagine the qualities that would appeal to you the most. Long-lasting durability and realistic designs are vital. Look for a brand that protects against dents, scratches, and cuts.

I was really excited doing stuff for artfight (and just getting back into doing visual art in general) but now my laptop display is fucked and I can't use it.
Hopefully it'll be a quick fix because I literally almost started crying today bc I wouldn't be able to draw anything for at least a week.
