Arbogeste - le geste qui fait du bien aux arbres, est une application participative lancée par la mairie du 17e arrondissement de Paris pour inciter les habitants à soigner la flore près de chez eux. Chaque arbre a un besoin d’eau défini, et l’absence de pluie peut faire des ravages. Avec Arbogeste, la ville est entretenue par les habitants, remerciés et récompensés !
