The city of tomorrow is green and equitable
It has become clear that cities are more than merely transport and commercial centres of grey infrastructure – they are also living spaces for people and nature. More green-blue infrastructure and socially equitable access to these recreational zones close to where people live are the fundamental prerequisites for making cities liveable and sustainable in the long term.
How can urban agriculture in Zurich move toward the net-zero target? A FiBL study shows that major restructuring would be necessary to reach the goal – although smaller measures like urban farming with us can still help bring it closer.
