The international city of peace and justice is the greenest in the Netherlands. While 460 public gardens and parks naturally offer soothing green space in the traditional sense of the word, it’s hard to think of another city – although the village-like Hague has never officially gained city status – driving so hard for sustainability.
With 11km of coastline, The Hague’s ambitious climate-neutral by 2030 commitment – 10 years ahead of the Dutch national goal – looks to clean energy solutions, diversifying freshwater supplies and natural or high-tech ways to guard against rising sea levels.
