This has driven some to propose that the planet is entering a new epoch in its geological history called the Anthropocene – a point in time where most wild places have been </span><span lang="EN-AU" xml:lang="EN-AU" data-contrast="none">substantially modified which has driven substantial changes to natural systems including the climate. (Image above courtesy of McGregor Coxall)</span></p> <p><span lang="EN-AU" xml:lang="EN-AU" data-contrast="none">Biourbanism is an interdisciplinary concept founded on ecological sciences, landscape architecture, and urban design theory. It asserts that cities must be considered part of nature in order to address the extent and consequences of human impact on the planet. The Biourbanism model comprises ten systems, 5 bio and 5 urban, allowing professionals to identify ways to improve the resilience of cities and places to extreme weather events driven by climate change while delivering economic, environmental, and social benefits for communities.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559740":240}"> </span></p> <p><span lang="EN-AU" xml:lang="EN-AU" data-contrast="none">Hosted by the Australian Institute of Landscape Architects (AILA), Engineers Australia (EA), the Planning Institute of Australia (PIA), and Stormwater Queensland (SQ), this event will provide an overview of the Biourbanism model and discussion on its relevance for Southeast Queensland cities.
