Emerging

    One of the things I love about travelling is discovering that sometimes so-called ‘developing’ countries are doing better than those we consider highly developed. Take Albania, for example, which I am visiting at the moment. Did you know that this is one of only three countries in the world run entirely on renewable energy (mostly hydro). What’s more, the capital city Tirana has been transformed into a green city, including a large central park with forest and lake, car-free zones, bike lanes, electric taxis and energy insulated buildings, plus extensive tree planting with another 2 million planned by 2030.
