Today’s guest is Ross O’Ceallaigh, and he’s here to ruin the idea that a green city is automatically a good one.
In this episode, you’ll hear why perfectly cut grass can be bad for nature, why some cities accidentally kill biodiversity while trying to “save the planet,” and how letting places get a bit messier can actually make cities cooler, healthier, and safer during heatwaves and floods. Ross also explains why people sometimes rebel against nature projects — and what happens when communities aren’t told what’s going on.
If you’ve ever thought trees on buildings look cool but wondered if they actually help… or if cities can fix climate problems without turning into jungles, this conversation will seriously change how you see urban life.
