Exploring Vienna's environmental history

Several people are standing in a pedestrian zone listening to a guide.

On July 24th, the Geo Green Team attended a sustainability walking tour through Vienna hosted by Austria Guides For Future, opens an external URL in a new window to explore how our city is tackling climate challenges while narrating its rich history. During a Guides for Future tour, participants connect the past with the present to create a better future. Our guide shared insights into how ideas around sustainability and infrastructure have evolved, with some uplifting historical perspectives. We discussed how improvements we take for granted today, from proper waste management to modern healthcare facilities, represent significant progress in urban quality of life. We explored everything from green facades to solar roofs on historic buildings, community gardens tucked into densely built areas, and the story behind managing the river to prevent flooding. Let's keep exploring and learning how the city paves the way for climate action!
