#27: Dr Nadina Galle - The Internet of Nature, Technology and Urban Ecology
Nadina is an ecological engineer, technologist, and entrepreneur dedicated to working with urban ecologists and planners to apply today’s technology to improve urban ecosystems for future generations of city dwellers. She also runs an excellent podcast called the Internet of Nature, which I highly recommend.
In this episode we talk about:
- What is the Internet of Nature
- How to use technology to ensure better tree survival rates in cities
- And the role of technology in connecting city residents to nature.
I am always a bit skeptical of the idea of smart cities and relying on technology too much to solve our problems. But Nadina explains really well how digital technology can be a vital tool in an era of a changing climate. How we can use existing technology to learn about urban ecosystems and make better decisions.
