Ecologizing Our Living Spaces: Recent Episodes
Ecologizing OLS
This podcast is for all people who want to ecologize our living spaces! In each episode, we take a closer look at the topics of rewilding, decomposition and biophilia. What is the current situation? What needs to be done? And most of all: what can each of us do, especially those of us living in urban areas? We talk to different experts to address these questions, who will inspire you to take action at home and imagine the vast potential for greener urban living!This podcast has been created by the Robert Bosch Alumni Network and students from Hochschule der Medien in Stuttgart.

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.

How often do you meet decomposition and decay in your daily life? Not so often? We can tell you why. This episode is all about the circle of life. We talk about why decomposition is important, who is decomposing dead material and what we can do ourselves to make a change.

Have you ever been in nature and felt your mood shift? This is a phenomenon called biophilia. It describes how being in nature is connected to our health and well-being. In this episode we talk to architect Matthias Olt about using biophilia in architecture and the benefits that this approach has to offer. We also discuss species dispersal and the importance of greener cities with Prof. Leonie Fischer.
