Urban Jungle

I learned so much about the history of nature in cities--and I could barely keep up with my note taking imagining the future of landscapes in cities and suburbia.

I applaud this book’s ambitious but highly plausible vision of our future cities being filled with urban nature. I found the narrative flowing and convincing and enjoyed the many examples of what has already been achieved to integrate more green space and wildlife into cities around the world, from Berlin to Singapore.

I think it’s a great primer to reimagining how we can, and must, one day live in perfect harmony with nature, especially in the city. It filled me with hope, which is a real challenge for any writing on the subject of biodiversity.
