SUGi Talks 🌿 EP03: The Impact: What does science say about our Miyawaki Forests?
Did you know that there is a biodiversity crisis in our cities? How can our Pocket Forests help cities? And what’s their impact?
Grey is our lead scientist at SUGi, and she holds the key to the rich data behind our Pocket Forests. Based in Perth Australia, she was recognised by UNESCO’s Green Citizen’s campaign for her STEM outreach program which brings Miyawaki forests into schools.
With a PhD in ecology, her most recent work is dedicated to investigating the use and effectiveness of Miyawaki forests in urban greening, specifically their impact on biodiversity, wellbeing, and climate change mitigation. Grey planted our SUGi Pocket forest at South Padbury Primary School. From this forest, she’s been gathering important data about Miyawaki Forests and their impact.
Together we’ll speak about how Miyawaki forests can help cities as climate change puts our cities at risk.
Thank you, Dr. Grey.
