Lahti. Is it the most Criminal City in Finland?
Lahti is a city in Southern Finland, just one hour away from Helsinki. It has a remarkable story to tell. Lahti was once a polluted industrial city, but over the years, with the efforts of its residents, it has changed. Three years ago, Lahti earned the title of Europe's Green Capital and now it aims to become the first carbon neutral city in Finland.
In this video, I'll take you on a journey to Lahti and share its incredible transformation story.
