Cement Versus green - by International Co-ordinator: Greece - August 28th, 2003.
We are the Environmental team of the 5th Gymnasium of Katerini, North Greece, which during the current school year have run a survey on the "Green & Open Spaces in our City". Two newspaper articles attracted our interest in this topic. The first one announced the decision of the Ministry of Home Affairs to fund 70 municipalities with 35 million euros in order to "green" the schoolyards of their domain. In the second article our Mayor presented his plans to have a five-storey cultural centre erected in the schoolyard of the 5th Gymnasium which is situated in the historical centre of the city. Surrounded by concrete high-rise buildings and under their chilly shadow, we wondered: "Is there enough green in our city? Should we spare our schoolyard? Are the principles of sustainable development of towns and cities served with decisions of the kind? What is the Municipality's "green" policy? Let us investigate!" Over the course of our investigation, we consulted bibliography & scientific magazines, a scientist city planner, a professional journalist and a veteran photographer. We carried out a public opinion survey, interviewed Municipality officials, we did study in the field and we exchanged information with our YRE partners from five European countries.
