(Baonghean.vn) - Vinh City currently has over 12,000 trees, ornamental plants and over 55,000 m2 of border plants, 72,000 m2 of grass and green leaves covering most of the streets throughout the city.
The green tree system not only creates an environmental landscape but also contributes to air conditioning, creating a fresh and cool atmosphere for urban spaces. Therefore, to protect the city's "green lungs" during record heat waves, with average temperatures reaching 39 - 40 degrees Celsius, workers at Vinh City Green Park Joint Stock Company have to change their working hours and implement many "specific" measures to avoid heat and maintain humidity...
 |
| To avoid the heat, starting from 3:30 a.m., the female workers of the green tree team - Vinh City Green Tree Park Joint Stock Company started preparing to take care of the tree pots in the Le Nin street area. |
 |
| The plants are watered 15-20 times a day, starting at 4am and ending at 11pm. |
 |
| These days, Ms. Tran Thi Hong (on the flower team) also works from 5am to avoid the sun and to prevent the plants from drying out after pruning. |
 |
| This year is extremely hot, the temperature is higher than previous years, so in addition to 3 watering trucks used regularly, Vinh City Green Park Joint Stock Company has to mobilize an additional 10m3 watering truck; add 20 more workers to the watering department... |
 |
Tanker trucks operate from 5am to 11pm on some main roads in the city, such as National Highway 1, Lenin Street, Lenin - Xo Viet Street, and Lam River Road. |
 |
| To help the plants grow well, the number of watering times by the tanker truck has also been increased by 3-5 times/day compared to the summer of previous years. |

 |
| Paying attention to regular watering and many measures to care for and protect trees by workers of Green Park Joint Stock Company has contributed to cooling Vinh city during harsh weather days. |
