City of Eternal Spring Disadvantage

The city of eternal spring is not only known because of it’s consistent climate, but because it’s also a city built among mountains. The problem is created because of Medellin’s location, located in a valley where mountains surround the city. This creates a pollution problem where the mountains have a role that consists of not allowing an easy dispersion of pollutants, so pollution tends to stay in the metropolitan area. A solution to improve Medellin’s environment is by restricting and reducing the use of cars, where people only transport by using all the public transportation the city of Medellin contains. We also have a system of “Pico y Placa” regulation by car plate numbers that I agree with because it reduces the total carbon footprint of Medellin.
