Modern urban planners thought that progress could be achieved, and nature kept under control. Today, climate change often leads us to imagine the future as calamitous. Challenging anti-urban environmentalism across history, this lecture will argue for an embrace of the ecological potentials of cities.

This event is part of the lecture series “On Environment.” The series is organized by the Chair of Environmental Humanities at the Rachel Carson Center for Environment and Society.

The event will be held in English, registration is not necesssary. For more information please visit the RCC website.
