The Green City: Understanding our Green Spaces
Not many people realise Salford is 60% green space, and there are many exciting projects going on to celebrate and protect its urban nature. Dr Sam Hayes takes us on a journey into the importance of green spaces in Greater Manchester through the work of researchers at the University of Salford. In this video we will explore the impact of green space on wellbeing, the benefits of running and cycling in the natural world, the importance of biodiversity and how we can contribute to protecting it.

Initially built to defend against any future flooding events, this wetland has attracted all kinds of wildlife to an area rarely associated with the natural world. It reminds us that nature is on our doorstep, and that we just need to open our eyes and our mind to t...

    The problem is Mancunians and Salfordians are not very proud of their river. If I have the capital I would start a business hiring motor dinghies out to the public to enjoy.

    That`s all fine and dandy but as an engineer I can assure you that roof gardens are a bunch of nonsense that just make your roof leak more. If you want more greenery then fixing housing regulation so that roof green and terrace green spaces are not counted as part of the green spaces installed by the builder might be a better option. Slopped roofs are also a better option than flat roofs.

    • @smokncho77
      @smokncho77 2 роки тому

      What do you mean by sterile? I assume that would require a reintroduction of ecosystem components to make it self sustaining and balanced again. Like water, aeration, microbiomes, vegetation, biodiversity, etc.

    Beautiful. I never knew that existed. Then I extended my walk in lockdown. I was so amazed by it. I will be walking around there as much as I can. You must go for a walk, anyone who hasn't been yet. Plus it's so awesome to have a lovely nature place in an urban area. You can see all the towers of Manchester in the background which adds to the contrast. Just a wonderful place.🌄💚💛
