Cities are getting hotter – Melbourne is expected to warm by up to 4 °C in the next 70 years. The Royal Botanic Gardens are taking action: by maintaining cool microclimates like Fern Gully, supporting pollinators with the Melbourne Pollinator Corridor, and showing how green spaces keep cities livable.
In this video, we spend a workday with the team at the Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne. Discover how they are shaping a greener future – and how STIHL battery tools help them work efficiently, ergonomically, and more sustainably.
