In Austria’s second-largest city, sustainability is not just a buzzword. Nearly 60% of Graz is reserved for urban green spaces. Zero waste and social-impact stores are scattered across the car-free old town. Wednesdays are officially meat-free days in schools and kindergartens. Green hydrogen buses ply the streets.
