"Taking the title for most sustainable destination in the 2023 GDS-Index for the seventh time is Gothenburg, Sweden. The city, which is spread across an archipelago, is a heavy hitter in environmental policy. One of its more ambitious projects, the Gothenburg Green City Zone, tests out new sustainable transportation and infrastructure with the aim to make the zone completely free of emissions by 2030. The city’s airport has the highest Airport Carbon Accreditation certificate and its shuttle runs on rapeseed oil. Its southern islands are completely car-free and accessible only by public transportation. With a score of 94.64, it’s not hard to see why this beautiful Scandinavian city is hailed as one of the greenest on Earth." - Jessica Puckett
