Wie kann Grün in der Architektur die urbane Hitzebildung reduzieren, die Feinstaubbildung vermindern, den städtischen Lärmpegel senken und das Wohlbefinden der Menschen steigern?

Es liefert Antworten auf die am häufigsten gestellten Fragen - von der Bestandsbegrünung bis zur Neubaubegrünung, von Einsparungen durch Gebäudegrün bis zu finanziellen Förderungen und von praktischen Tipps zur Pflanzenwahl bis zu ökologischen Auswirkungen auf das Stadtklima.

Quizá se han difuminado muchos de los hechos que nos cruzan en la vida para hacer una película que queda en un anecdotario. Pero cuando los recuerdos son nítidos y las experiencias en ellos están todavía latentes, parece importante dejarlas por escrito, cuando menos por un legítimo derecho a la memoria y compartir unas imágenes colectivas que abundan en vivencias más generales y un sentimiento más acogedor que no haberlo repasado nunca No quiere esto decir que el lector se identifique con el relato que se ofrece, pero sí que hay sensaciones y recuerdos que merecen la pena prioritaria en el transcurso personal de la evolución de los recuerdos. Se ofrece, en estas líneas, el testimonio bastante fiel de recuerdos que serán familiares para muchos lectores y, tal vez, la coincidencia de los mismos entornos conocidos o comentados en un periodo aproximado de treinta años (1.959-1.989), que encarna la narrativa en un niño que se va haciendo hombre y es tocado por las circunstancias más comunes de su generación. Los lugares que se citan de Bizkaia, huyendo de anacronismos, tienen la denominación histórica correspondiente y se citan, como botón de muestra Plentzia, Barrika, Berango, Górliz, Getxo, Sondika, Bilbao, Basauri, Galdakao,...y algunas personas no coinciden con los nombres propios, pero se puede decir que la fotografía de la generación es bastante correcta y precisa, a pesar del breve relato. En todo caso, queda el sentimiento íntimo de homenaje a la tierra que te vio nacer, crecer y madurar y que no puede evitar ser su embajador allá donde vayas.
