The councilor of Sustainability, Sara Usó, participates in the session of development of the due ideas guanyadores dels reptes de l'Ajuntament
The Councilor for Environmental Sustainability, Sara Usó, has participated in the Climathon 2016, the largest event on climate change that has been held in various cities around the world simultaneously. During the day, the participants presented their ideas to the two representatives of the Castelló City Council. He used the agraït “high name of ideas” that the attendees have presented and has highlighted that “citizen participation is the basis for improving the city.”
On the one hand, the first repte has focused on the concept of “renaturalizing the city” and the participants have contributed their most innovative ideas to combat the heat effect. Guanyadora's idea has followed that of Ángel Gallardó, who has presented a project based on “photosynthetic cities”. Gallardó has presented the idea of a paint that could be used on façades, terraces or urban furniture and with contact with the light, this paint would eliminate winter gases, except CO2.
On the other hand, the idea selected for the “Smart Green Cities” list has followed that of Diego López. His latest initiative consists of the creation of a sustainable vehicle that is somewhere between a car and a bike. It is a covered bicycle that would function with a battery that is recharged through a solar panel installed in the holder.
