The annual Resonance list was published on Earth day and features the world’s most visited cities
Once again, the Austrian capital of Vienna and its citizens and local authorities have been awarded with the recognition they so rightfully deserve in terms of green policies and sustainable development with the city coming on top of Resonance’s World’s Greenest Cities List for 2020.
