City Plants One Million Trees in Ambitious Green Plan

Graded English news article at B1 level.

The city of Melbourne has completed its ambitious plan to plant one million trees across its urban area, a project that began in 2012. City officials say the trees will help reduce summer temperatures by up to four degrees Celsius in some neighborhoods, improve air quality, and provide habitats for local wildlife. Volunteers and schoolchildren planted nearly half of the trees, and the rest were planted by professional crews. The city has now launched a second phase with a target of another two million trees by 2035. Environmental experts have praised the initiative as a model for other cities facing the effects of climate change, noting that urban green spaces also support mental health and community well-being.
