📌 Session 1 – Urban Greening (9.00am - 10.35am) Presented by Simon Blackwell, HIP V. HYPE
Discover the incredible social and environmental benefits of urban greening and why it matters for you, your family and the wider community.

From urban heat mitigation, habitat creation and long-term community wellbeing, Simon will explain how ‘not all urban greening is created equal’. He'll also unpack how both top-down city-scale strategies and bottom-up household actions can combine to create neighbourhoods which are cool, beautiful and full of nature.

Learn about the threats facing Black Cockatoos, their habitat needs, and the role everyday suburban landscapes can play in their survival.
