The city and the wild: Design meets ecosystems

This Wednesday I will present a seminar on the relationships between cities and natural ecosystems, and how they can coexist. Join us in the Cairns Institute if you are in Cairns.

Lover of nature but guilty for also loving the ‘wasteful urban life’ as it is so many times referred to? In this presentation I will discuss how the green and the grey can happily coexist #urbanecosystems #urbanlandscapes #urbandesign #greeninfrastructure @jcu @CairnsInstitute https://t.co/aT1C3wL0Jy
