Cities, Pigeons and Making Peace with Nature

Nature Unheard

Are cities doomed to be grey and overheated, or can nature help them thrive? 

In the final episode of this season of Nature Unheard, Rachael Barza and Emma Bentley explore how nature-based solutions are transforming urban life. From persistent pigeons at London tube stations to flood-prone rivers in Moldova, and from mangrove forests in the Philippines to goose festivals in Hungary, this episode shows how working with nature can cool our streets, protect our homes and reconnect us with the wild, even in the middle of the city. 

Featuring Ingrid Coetzee of ICLEI – Local Governments for Sustainability, and a special soundbite from the EBRD’s work on the River Bîc in Chișinău, supported by the Green Climate Fund (GCF) as part of our Green Cities programme.
