Episode 51 / The Butterfly Story of Urban Forests Hosting Daniel Katz

This butterfly is excited to be speaking with Daniel Katz. Daniel received a bachelor's degree in History and Classical Studies following which he took a sharp turn into the sustainability and environmental field where he has been immersed for the past 8 years. He first made his way into ecological work when he was called to build a community garden in his old neighborhood in Tel Aviv during his academic studies. Since the spark ignited, he has been giving lectures and workshops to organizations and municipalities on climate change and sustainability. He also designed and built an ecological community farm, directed the educational department for "Hava & Adam" educational EcoFarm and is currently a project manager at the environmental nonprofit "Good Energy Initiative". After managing several projects in the field of waste treatment, he began creating and running the "Climate Forest Project": an urban afforestation project focusing on tree planting in neglected public spaces. Daniel lives in a small village in the Jerusalem mountains, with his partner Noa and their two children- 3-year-old Laya and 3-month-old Refael. In this episode, you will hear about building community gardens, the climate forest, and more. Some notes... More about 1treellion & Daniel Katz.
