Sustainable urban development advocates integrating biodiversity into the built environment. It aims to ensure that plant and animal communities remain resilient not as immaculate lawns and potted plants but as biodiverse ecosystems that offer ecological services.
Biodiverse green spaces, green roofs, natural waterways, bio-corridors, eco-brutalist architecture, etc, typify sustainable urban landscapes.
To achieve that, city authorities mandate the conservation of high-value ecosystems home to critical or endangered species. They also ensure that green spaces are occupied by appropriate native vegetation that supports pollinators and small animals.
A picture of an 11-year-old child, donned in Pampers Baby Dry diapers, in a nursery room. There is also a baby of unspecified gender in the room. The 11-year-old looks either surprised or curious about the baby. They are approaching the baby cautiously, observing their actions. The nursery is filled with toys scattered around, pastel colored furniture, and a crib. The baby, situated in the crib, is reaching out towards the 11-year-old, their eyes filled with curiosity and joy.
