Green space is good for us all.

Parks and gardens bring life to communities big and small all over the world and provide a habitat for native plants and animals. Ensuring access to these outdoor spaces can inspire art, music and literature and create ways for communities to grow their own food. But today, green space everywhere is at risk.

Keep Our World Green looks at how green space has evolved throughout history, from the first public garden to the origins of bonsai trees. It examines the political, social and environmental challenges of maintaining green spaces because of pollution, inequality and the effects of the climate crisis. It also introduces the people working to protect these places for the future—you can be a green space activist too! Come on, let’s take a walk in the park together!
