Back in January, the City of Portland hosted Dr. Timothy Beatley for two presentations on the significance of nature in cities. His project Biophilic Cities is expanding to connect leading countries across the world that are working to preserve and protect their relationships with the natural world. The project now includes a blog with more frequent updates and interesting snapshots of work around the globe. 

Did you miss Dr. Beatley's presentation in January at the Pacific Northwest College of Art? If so, you can see a slideshow and download an mp3 recording of the talk from PNCA's Untitled publication website.
