Urban Greenprint

How can a city function like Nature? The Urban Greenprint is a biomimicry-inspired process that identifies pilot projects, targeting health&resilience of cities

Bioutilization is a critical piece of #ClimateAction. #Wetlands filter pollutants, create habitat, and store carbon. AND they’re beautiful via @YaleE360 #biodiversity #bluecarbon #ecosystemservices #LearnFromNature

Artificial floating wetlands are proliferating worldwide to help clean up urban waters.

The National Aquarium in Baltimore is planning to expand its 400-square-foot floating wetland to 10,000 square feet by 2024.

Aligning our efforts with Nature is the solution for #climatechange #biodiversityloss and #globalhealth bc nature solves multiple issues at once, using materials and energy on hand #LearningFromNature and oh right, #WeAREnature! #biophilia

Yes. Nature can be our greatest ally as we solve for #ClimateChange #biodiversity loss, and #pollution via @unep @andersen_inger #LearnFromNature #ClimateCrisis

[UN Environment Programme @UNEP]

The interconnected nature of #ClimateChange, loss of biodiversity, land degradation, & air & water pollution means they must be addressed together to maximize the benefits & minimize trade-offs.

Earth is screaming with all its might.

To restore balance, we must heed the knowledge of #IndigenousPeoples and local communities who have listened deeply and worked with Mother Nature for generations.

And to recognise and respect their rights.

Can you imagine having a #carbondioxide emissions inventory at the city level for every city? @Google is doing just that. What if we added ecological performance standards so that city planners could benchmark against nature's metrics? #cityasaforest

Routledge is trialing a system of letting their authors share their books in their entirety for free (60 days). So... here is a link to my new book 'regenerative urban design and ecosystem biomimicry' https://t.co/LrSzSDRXnM Enjoy!!!

“I’ve been talking a lot these days about us being #netpositive producers of #ecosystemservices ... like nurturing #biodiversity, nutrient cycling, water storage, and sinking carbon deep into the soils..."
