Have you ever wondered why many people accept wilderness located far away, but not in their own neighborhood? This episode will offer you a perspective on urban wilderness you may have never thought of before. You will hear about how literally all of us can bring wilderness to our urban environments, how this may help humans to reconnect with nature, and how this will eventually help provide solutions to the challenges humans and biodiversity are facing on Earth.
