📢Launched today: New NbS Knowledge Hub to help scale #naturebasedsolutions in the UK. Developed by researchers from @NatureBasedSols & #AgileInitiative, including cross-disciplinary tools, guides and policy briefs. naturebasedsolutionsinitiative.org/news/nbs-knowl…
Very excited to get started on this new project to make our cities better places for us and the planet #humanswithnature #makespacefornature #greencities

Botanical gardens cool city air by around 5°C in heatwaves, reveals an international study involving UKCEH. Parks & wetlands also notably lower air temperatures 🌡️ The @UniOfSurrey-led @reclaim_network team reviewed data from 100+ urban areas worldwide ceh.ac.uk/news-and-media…
Good news @ Edinburgh City Council. 49 native wildflower perennial meadows managed across city parks, many with Edinburgh Urban Pollinators seed mix. 2023 = 102,000 wildflower bulbs planted across city parks. Mini meadows being considered for cemeteries and golf courses 🌸🌼🐝
This paper was the first step in working on a new topic for my postdoc work, and I'm so glad I had the chance to work with my amazing collaborators on it! Cheers @er_bush, @JasonVleminckx, @bofosubamfo1, @Dr_MR_Metz, Simon Queenborough, and Adeline Fayolle!

The UN predicts that two out of three people will live in cities by 2050. But will these cities be good places to live? And can they do good to our living planet? stories.rbge.org.uk/archives/37764 @TheBotanics @BotanicsStories @RBGE_Science #NatureBasedSolutions
🔴NEW REPORT 🏭Cities are on the frontline of the #climatecrisis: 👥Home to 4.4bn 🔋Occupy <2% of the 🌎 but account for ~70% of emissions 🌧️The human spaces most exposed to climate risk We must act NOW to make them climate resilient. 📗➡️ Read more: ccag.earth/s/CCAG-Cities-…
We need cities that are climate resilient, keeping their people safe. We need construction that is fit for purpose in a net-zero emissions world. We have the know-how but we must urgently put it into practice. Read CCAG's action plan: ccag.earth/s/CCAG-Cities-…
(3/3) UNEP-WCMC is working on how using nature-based solutions and a system of urban ecosystem accounting can improve air quality in Chinese cities, among other benefits. Read more in our blog ➡️tinyurl.com/5n8p2z4x

Led by @jaydelves, our paper on the importance of small and in-country herbaria is out in @plantspplplanet! Summary: small herbaria and those in biodiverse countries hold unique specimen records. Without them, or view of the world's biodiversity is incomplete and biased.

@BESConservation @er_bush Hi Emma, yes the event will include urban landscapes! You can apply to speak at either the lowland or coastal sessions – which ever is most appropriate for your research area. Stay tuned for more information on the sessions.

Good news @ Edinburgh City Council. 49 native wildflower perennial meadows managed across city parks, many with Edinburgh Urban Pollinators seed mix. 2023 = 102,000 wildflower bulbs planted across city parks. Mini meadows being considered for cemeteries and golf courses 🌸🌼🐝
