Dear MEL Topic Readers
How Hong Kong plans to replace 100,000 trees
Typhoon Mangkhut was the strongest typhoon to strike hit Hong Kong since Ellen in 1983. It caused flooding, especially in low-lying and coastal areas, and knocked over more than 50,000 trees blocking several roads. Also, there seem to be another 50,000 or so felled trees that were not reported.
You may wonder if there are so many trees in Hong Kong. In fact, less than a quarter of the land in Hong Kong has been developed, and the rest of the land space is quite green.
These felled trees not only damaged houses and cars but also caused road disruptions in many parts of the city. The authority hurried to remove those felled trees from busy streets to somewhere. But where to? Also, what are they doing with so much wood waste? No city in the world is prepared to deal with such a large amount of wood waste in a short time.
Enjoy reading and learn about this unthinkable problem Hong Kong suffered after a typhoon.
