The PSOE Palma criticized this Monday the removal of elements from the Bellver playground, an action that the socialists consider a dismantling of the play area. Cort, however, denied that the park is being eliminated and explained that they are removing, just as was agreed upon with the neighbors, the elements that were installed during the previous legislature, under the Pacte de Progrés.

Palma is one of the few European capitals without a large central urban park comparable to those in cities of similar size, such as Oviedo, Vitoria, and Seville, or to the large historical gardens present in many other cities. Why does the city not have a large green lung today? The enigma now resonates more strongly amid the climate crisis, tourist saturation, the need for green refuges against heatwaves, and discussions about Palma's water resources capacity to accommodate the 46,000 new inhabitants projected for the next decade.
