Estimating the social value of nature-based solutions in European cities (2022)
Journal Article
Bockarjova, M., Botzen, W. W., Bulkeley, H. A., & Toxopeus, H. (2022). Estimating the social value of nature-based solutions in European cities. Scientific Reports, 12(2022), Article 19833. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-022-23983-3

By implementing nature-based solutions (NBS), cities generate value for their residents, such as health and wellbeing. We estimate the aggregate social value to urban residents of 85 NBS projects implemented across Europe and find that the majority y...

Nature for Resilience? The Politics of Governing Urban Nature (2022)
Journal Article
Tozer, L., Bulkeley, H., Kiss, B., Luque-Ayala, A., Voytenko Palgan, Y., McCormick, K., & Wamsler, C. (2023). Nature for Resilience? The Politics of Governing Urban Nature. Annals of the American Association of Geographers, 1113(3), 599-615. https://doi.org/10.1080/24694452.2022.2130867

Transcending initial efforts to make cities ‘climate smart’ by focusing on the potential of new technologies and infrastructural interventions, various actors are increasingly interested in deploying nature to help achieve urban resilience. In this c... Read More about Nature for Resilience? The Politics of Governing Urban Nature.

Border troubles: urban nature and the remaking of public/private divides (2022)
Journal Article
Armstrong, A., Bulkeley, H., Tozer, L., & Kotsila, P. (2023). Border troubles: urban nature and the remaking of public/private divides. Urban Geography, 44(8), 1747-1767. https://doi.org/10.1080/02723638.2022.2125669

Traditional interventions to “bring nature into the city” were often motivated by a concern to create forms of public space which would provide a public good. Despite such well-intentioned motivations, these public forms of urban nature have always b... Read More about Border troubles: urban nature and the remaking of public/private divides.

Catalyzing sustainability pathways: Navigating urban nature based solutions in Europe (2022)
Journal Article
Tozer, L., Bulkeley, H., van der Jagt, A., Toxopeus, H., Xie, L., & Runhaar, H. (2022). Catalyzing sustainability pathways: Navigating urban nature based solutions in Europe. Global Environmental Change, 74, Article 102521. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gloenvcha.2022.102521

The notion that pathways can be identified and followed towards more sustainable futures has become an increasingly prevalent idea across the science and policy of global environmental change. Focusing on the debate within literatures on socio-techni... Read More about Catalyzing sustainability pathways: Navigating urban nature based solutions in Europe.

Transnational Governance and the Urban Politics of Nature-Based Solutions for Climate Change (2022)
Journal Article
Tozer, L., Bulkeley, H., & Xie, L. (2022). Transnational Governance and the Urban Politics of Nature-Based Solutions for Climate Change. Global Environmental Politics, 22(3), 81-103. https://doi.org/10.1162/glep_a_00658

Multiple visions for how urbanism can respond to the climate crisis and foster sustainability have emerged on the international agenda, including the ecocity, low-carbon city, smart city, and resilient city. These competing visions have been joined b... Read More about Transnational Governance and the Urban Politics of Nature-Based Solutions for Climate Change.

Mainstreaming sustainable innovation: unlocking the potential of nature-based solutions for climate change and biodiversity (2022)
Journal Article
