@WMNP_Lab @BCUPressOffice @BCU_MALA @myBCUresearch @wlandscapearch @KathrynMoore @designmusemoore @IFLA_President @RobinCEDaniels @5andracosta @westmidsparks @WestMids_CA Kongjian's approach to #water, #ClimateCrisis and #ClimateAction is fascinating... he designs urban #landscapes to act as sponges which help control #flooding - and in the process, creates beautiful parks for people to enjoy.
