City retains Tree City of the World status for fourth year running

Cllr Majid Mahmood, Cabinet Member for Environment, said: “It’s great to hear we have been independently reconfirmed as a Tree City of the World for the fourth year running. This is recognition of our dedication to growing and maintaining our urban forest by working with partners to shape and deliver plans that develop our environment in a sustainable and coherent way.

“We know the benefits that trees bring for the health and wellbeing of the people of Birmingham as well as our economy -  so we will continue to do everything we can to manage and enhance the city’s tree canopy because that is integral to our ambitions both as a city of nature and on our route to achieving net zero carbon emissions.”

More information on the program is available via the Tree Cities of the World website.
