Vatican City “Sustainability means protecting the natural environment our survival depends on — creating a lasting balance between humans and nature for present and future generations.”

About Vatican City

Vatican City, the smallest sovereign state in the world, consists almost entirely of built structures and formal gardens rather than natural terrain, given its size of under half a square kilometer. Its Vatican Gardens nonetheless support a range of Mediterranean plant species and resident bird populations within their carefully maintained grounds.
