[2020·¿ª·âÊиßÈýÄ£Äâ]The bus stops in the Dutch city of Utrecht are as beautiful as they are practical. Now, 316 bus stops feature a green roof that adds some life to the city, while also storing rainwater, catching dust, and providing some much needed shade during the hot months. This project is good for the honeybee population that is attracted to the plants on the roof. To keep up this successful ecosystem, municipal workers drive around in electric cars, taking care of the mini gardens.

 Another one of the biggest benefits to come out of these green stops is the improved air quality. Smoking, cars, and bacteria all contribute to polluting the air we breathe. These eco­friendly public spaces act as an air purifier (¾»»¯Æ÷) for urban people, though humans aren't the only group that benefits from them.

Utrecht has also made great efforts towards moving their transportation system away from gas­guzzling (ºÄÓ͵Ä)  buses. The city has replaced 10 gas­guzzling buses with electric buses and plans to have only CO₂­inactive buses on the roads by 2028.

The buses have a system that records the driver's efficiency and comfort levels.  Drivers can win prizes based on how safe and comfortable the ride is. The city is also one of the most bicycle­friendly places in the world. Roads have been redesigned for cyclists' convenience and there is a new state­of­the­art bicycle parking area that is located beneath Utrecht's central train station.

Utrecht offers incentives (½±Àø) to keep citizens energized  and motivated to live greener lives.  There're even incentives for  people to transform their roofs into green roofs too. Achieving the goals of an eco­friendly city takes cooperation and Utrecht is leading the way to protect our environment.
