Full of trees, this is the greenest European city

Sheffield, a city once known for its steel industry, has evolved and transformed into a model for green cities, becoming one of the greenest cities in Britain. Nestled in the Yorkshire hills, Sheffield is known not only for its stunning nature, but also for the historical and industrial heritage it has left behind.
The city has benefited from its natural resources, particularly the five watercourses connected to the River Don, which have had a major influence on its development. The water from these rivers has provided power for mills since the 12th century, enabling Sheffield to grow as an industrial centre. The production of steel and cutlery, such as the famous knives, brought the city international fame during the Industrial Revolution.
However, over time and with the changes in global industry, Sheffield has transformed from a “steel city” to a city that values nature and greenery. Much of the city is covered in trees, with up to nine times more trees than people. During the industrial period, the city used nature as a source of energy, but now focuses on preserving and promoting it, making this city a great example of the balance between development and environmental protection.
