"Not only has it been scientifically proven that urban gardens, woodlands and
parks reduce depression, in a study by the University of Leeds for example,
they are immensely valuable for preserving the environment.
Urban gardens and vertical farms are starting to pop up all over the world, as
the UN predicts 68 per cent of the world population will live in towns and
cities by 2050. With the building of ‘urban forests’ around Paris, in a bid to
decrease air pollution, and Singapore confronting the food crisis with sky
farms and lab-grown shrimp, the trend is catching on.
When it comes to green architecture, the results are stunning. But what makes a
building sustainable?
It's all about minimising the environmental impact of the structure. This could
be through energy efficiency, eco-friendly materials or a deliberate awareness
of its surroundings, aiming to conserve the biodiversity of the area."
