Ante la crisis ecosocial, más que conocimiento, tal vez nos faltan vínculos. Vivimos rodeados de vida. A veces, sin darnos cuenta. Cada árbol o lagartija con la que nos cruzamos forma parte de una red de relaciones ecológicas. Y tal vez sepamos ponerles nombre o número a algunas de esas especies.

En el #DíaMundialDeLasCiudades recordamos que el futuro urbano se construye respirando aire limpio. 🌿 En el #ManifiestoCleanCities, junto con @cleancitiescampaign.org, defendemos el compromiso compartido por ciudades que cuidan. ¿Te unes con tu firma? 💚 #CiudadesHabitables #CleanCities
