On our planet, all natural ecosystems are interconnected, and they nourish each other. Rivers connect mountains with the sea, forests breathe to cultivate our air, winds and insects carry the pollen of flowers to regenerate life. They all come together and make the web of life, of which, we are a part. Life on earth is based on the circularity of nature.

When we consider the cities of our era, however, we no longer see the circularity of nature. Cities of our era absorb air, water, soil, mines and biodiversity from our planet. In turn, they deliver plastic waste, carbon dioxide, wars and poverty that are all very far from enhancing the web of life. Most of the time, cities are overwhelmingly centralized, culturally and physically distracted from other ecosystems.
