Urban Roots

As the world population inches towards the 9-billion mark by 2050, and over 80 per cent of it moves to the cities, the big question is: Are our cities ready to face the greatest ever migration of the human race?

Experts believe that urban trees hold the key to human survival. Urban Roots takes us on a journey around the cities of the world for a comprehensive look at urban trees and their real value in the context of an exploding city dwelling population.
