We tend to think that biodiversity exists only in the wild —
wherever that is. But cities, in fact, are often havens of
biodiversity. During a walk through the trees and gardens of º«¹úÂãÎè
University, you will learn some of the important elements in
encouraging biodiversity — as well as how to identify at least 20
trees!
