New Publication: Regenerative Living Cities

Addressing the interlinked issues of biodiversity loss and climate change necessitates a change in how our urban environments are designed and function. Reversing the negative feedback loops of urbanisation, habitat destruction, and carbon emissions will be essential to the health and well-being of both human and non-human urban residents. Nature-based strategies have the potential to mitigate the negative impacts of climate change while providing biodiversity and well-being benefits. This article describes the role urban environments have in driving biodiversity loss and climate and how they could be transformed to become sites of regeneration and resilience. A number of urban regeneration strategies are discussed alongside case studies.
