What is Urban Naturalization?
Urban Naturalization can be simply defined as: “an ecologically-based approach to landscape management that seeks to restore environmental integrity to the urban landscape through the use of plant species native to the region.”
As a side-effect of human innovation and urban growth, the world’s cities and towns have become increasingly bare, stark environments – but our cities needn’t be separate from the natural world. We can make a difference. People all over the world have begun to recognize the need for cleaner air, healthier wildlife, and a touch of natural beauty in our everyday lives – and they are taking action. We aim to inform, engage, and inspire people all over the world to join the cause, and plant the first seed of progress in their community. |
