Top 96%
in this catalogue (920 scored practices)
Scores cluster high, so position within the catalogue is often more telling than the number alone.
Carbon — sequestration / storage, evidenced1/3
The 2023 master plan records planting totals (31,412 plants, 100,000 seedlings/yr target) but reports no carbon quantification or monitoring, so evidence is activity-level only.
Biodiversity — conservation / improvement, evidenced1/3
The plan references riparian green-corridor studies along the Serava and Lepenec rivers, but no biodiversity outcome data is reported.
Water & soil — retention, infiltration, erosion control0/3
Neither the master plan nor the independent coverage reports stormwater, infiltration, or soil outcomes for Skopje's greening work.
Fire resilience — risk reduction, evidenced0/3
No source addresses fire risk, so no evidence exists for this dimension.
Governance, certification & transferability1/3
A 2018 legal protection and a digitised Green Cadaster exist, but Balkan Insight's 2023 investigation documents developers routinely paying fixed fines instead of complying, evidencing weak enforcement.
