In this episode, host Wolfgang Holtkamp sits down with Professor Leonie Fischer, Director of the Institute of Landscape Planning and Ecology at the University of Stuttgart, to talk about urban ecology and what it means to build the city of tomorrow, one green idea at a time.
The conversation goes beyond plants and parks: touching on daylighting hidden rivers buried under concrete, reimagining marketplaces and playgrounds as living green space, and Stuttgart's role as a testbed for nature-based solutions. Along the way, a deeper question emerges: what does it take to make sure the greener city we're building belongs to everyone?
An episode about climate, equity, and the quiet power of bringing nature back into everyday city life.
