Re-designing our world: Creating harmony between cities and nature

Step into the incredible mind of Nina-Marie Lister! She looks at our streets, our communities, our world, as places full of potential to live harmoniously with nature.  This has been her life’s work - from designing wildlife crossings (including the world’s largest) to implementing systems that will connect green spaces and communities to changing city bylaws to support biodiversity. You’ve probably heard the arguments before for biodiversity and sustainability but Nina-Marie has a uniquely compelling way of addressing these issues. She’ll change the way you look at the world!Info on Guest:Nina-Marie Lister is a Professor in the School of Urban and Regional Planning,  and Director of the Ecological Design Lab at Toronto Metropolitan University.  She’s also a Visiting Professor with the Graduate School of Design at Harvard.  For more information on her work: https://www.torontomu.ca/school-of-urban-and-regional-planning/about/people/faculty/nina-marie-lister/  Her Ecological Design Lab:  https://ecologicaldesignlab.ca/ Plandform:  https://plandform.com/  We appreciate your support!  Please rate our podcast.  And subscribe and follow us on social!  @CRAMideas.   Our thanks to the Temerty Foundation for their generous support. We’d really appreciate your support!  Please rate our podcast and subscribe and follow us on social @CRAMideas.  Support the CRAM Podcast!Research shapes our lives, yet so much of it doesn’t reach the public.
