Our cities’ secret gardens: we connect with nature in neglected green spaces just as much as in parks, explain @HughStanford1 and Holly Kirk (@hollykirk .bluesky.social) Read here: theaustraliatoday.com.au/our-cities-sec… Dr Amit Sarwal 🇮🇳 🇦🇺 Pallavi Jain Rishi Suri RMIT University Jacinta Allan @opdwivedi82


📢 Our new OA research shows spatially targeting new green spaces to connect bigger patches of habitat can maximise investment for #urbanbiodiversity Thami Croeser explains it nicely! vimeo.com/941090209 🌱🗺️🐝🐦🦗 Paper with Sarah Bekessy @GeorgiaGarrard here: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

A great piece by Thami Croeser and Holly Kirk (@hollykirk .bluesky.social) for The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand on using 'stepping stones' to connect isolated #wildlife habitats to help #birds and #insects thrive in our cities. #UrbanWildlife #NatureInCitites theconversation.com/stepping-stone…

One day (soon?) 'everyday nature' will be a basic human right.

Fresh post on the ICON blog icon-science.org/ecology-insigh… The Biodiversity Sensitive Urban Design team with Nature Collective presented their first "Nature Insights" series to a huge range of industry people across the property sector:


Here at the global nature positive summit in Sydney - excited about our Built Environment session coming up soon - hoping for some tangible ways forward for the development industry to embrace nature positive ICON Science RMIT @RMIT_CUR Biodiversity Council


Businesses need to jump into nature reporting - yes, it's complex, but there are simple approaches and datasets available so there's no excuse (& the planet can't wait) Biodiversity Council ICON Science RMIT @RMIT_CUR Brendan Wintle Simon O'Connor theconversation.com/yes-nature-is-… via The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand

Michael Dahlstrom you’ve nailed this article - such an important message about caring for nature in our scramble to build more houses ICON Science RMIT Biodiversity Council @RMIT_CUR

Up now on the ICON blog: Find out about the new "Nature Pledge for Developers" launched by Sarah Bekessy Biodiversity Council at the recent Global Nature Positive Summit! #naturePositive #urbanNature Will your organisation join others in signing the pledge? icon-science.org/nature-pledge-…

New paper from ICON Science @RMIT_CUR @HughStanford1 Holly Kirk (@hollykirk .bluesky.social) @GeorgiaGarrard Joe Hurley

Overseas, the ‘3-30-300' city planning rule is increasingly seen as critical to human health and wellbeing. But new research from RMIT University has found Sydney and Melbourne are failing when it comes to one key component - tree cover. au.news.yahoo.com/two-aussie-cit…

Many cities fail the 3-30-300 benchmark for urban nature. The ‘3’ is often met and the ‘300’ is patchy due to poor tree canopy coverage. Cities need better planting conditions and governance to support tree growth Thami Croeser Terrestrial Ecology Roshan Sharma Sarah Bekessy nature.com/articles/s4146…
