Here’s my latest episode of Climate Connections ???

Over the past half century, Freetown, the capital of Sierra Leone, has undergone rapid population growth, resulting in the loss of millions of trees due to urban development in the city.

I featured Manja Kargbo Co-Architect of FreetownTheTreeTown initiative and finalist of The Earthshot Prize 2023 who shares how the city is on course to meet its ambitious target of planting one million trees by 2024, and how her team is reimagining nature sustainability for cities beyond Freetown.

Big thanks to The Earthshot Prize for arranging!
