A shadier Hyderabad is a cooler Hyderabad

Every summer the city feels a little hotter, and every summer we are surprised by it. The old neighbourhoods knew the answer: a neem outside every gate, a peepal at every corner, shade you could walk under from one street to the next.

Trees are the cheapest air-conditioners a city can buy, and they ask for nothing but water and time. Before the next heatwave arrives, the kindest civic act is also the simplest — plant one, and make sure it lives.
