Explores the competing concepts of biophilia and biophobia and why we need to design buildings and communities so children can learn about and come to love nature and protect it. 

This episode features the powerful impact the natural world can have on our physical and mental wellbeing, and how design can affect and influence how we live, work, play, and grow.

Join us for a conversation on the powerful impact nature has on our and our children’s development and mentality, and what Laura’s organization is doing to support citizens and educators in new and interesting ways to facilitate connections with the natural world.
