The case for urban agriculture: opportunities for sustainable development and community resilience
As segments of the world’s population continue migrating to cities, people become increasingly disconnected from their food, both geographically and conceptually.
Protecting vulnerable populations from the effects of extreme heat
Heatwaves cause more deaths in Australia than any other natural hazard and as global temperatures continue to increase, heatwaves are predicted to become more frequent, more intense, and longer in duration.
