With the ecological transition, climate issues and biodiversity, cities are going to have to adapt and reinvent themselves. How can public spaces be designed to meet the challenges ahead? <\/p>\n\n
Scorching summers, heat islands: this year, cities are feeling the full brunt of climate change. It’s hard to escape the ambient heat of concrete and tar. Urban agglomerations have seized on the problem and are putting in place solutions, including an increasing number of plant and water features. <\/p>\n\n
The notion of nature in the city is becoming essential: how can we give more space to plants, so that the urban and the living can coexist in harmony? How can we give a central place to water, which, after being buried, could return to the surface? Wild gardens, garden forests, greening, eco-neighborhoods, urban agriculture, soil waterproofing, riverbank renaturation… there are ways! <\/p>\n\n
Let’s imagine a city where islands of coolness replace islands of heat, where grey welcomes green and where the run-off from watercourses overshadows the noise of road traffic… and since we’ve just entered the month of September, which is ideal for gardening, let’s plant trees, shrubs and perennials. Let’s encourage biodiversity to develop nature in the city. <\/p>\n\n
