He is passionate about sustainability, net-zero and driving resilience to climate change, and he is excited by green infrastructure and bio-inspired solutions. Come and hear him talk about the importance of plants, worms and microbes in cleaning up storm water pollution and improving drainage - just one more reason why we need plants and nature in the built environment! Followed by a social chat, winter plant ident, and possibly a mince pie! Please Note - CHANGE of VENUE. We are running our next few Understory Events from Collective Architecture's Glasgow Studio.
