Mutualistic Cities: How can cities evolve from being parasites on Earth, to becoming beneficial organisms?

Produced and presented by Penny Southgate. This podcast is taken from the live show which was broadcast on Tuesday 27th September 2022 at 11am on BCfm Radio.

Humans have created a technosphere which is severely damaging the other spheres of Earth, including the atmosphere and the hydrosphere. Cities are a big part of this, and right now, are parasites on Earth.  How can cities evolve to become supportive organisms and help Earth to thrive instead?

Featuring:
