SUGi Talks

SUGi is a global platform dedicated to Nature-based solutions. We plant biodiverse Pocket Forests in urban areas and restore native forests for communities around the world. SUGi Talks is a podcast where we explore the powerful stories behind our Pocket Forests, from desert forests in Rajasthan to urban Pocket Forests in Beirut and London. Speaking with our expert Forest Makers, and collaborators, we’ll dig into how exactly we can help cities build biodiversity, climate resilience, and wellbeing.

  1. Why we feel better after a walk in a forest? Well — there’s a science to it!

    Why we feel better after a walk in a forest? Well — there’s a science to it!

    In this episode of SUGi Talks we meet the writer and journalist Lucy Jones. Her book Losing Eden: Why Our Minds Need The Wild explores the powerful ways Nature impacts our lives, and dives deep into the research that explains why we have such a profound connection to the living world..

    How Nature-based Solutions & urban trees can tackle our cities' growing issues.

    Our cities are in trouble and it’s not just the climate crisis. Urban areas are facing multiple interconnected challenges, including the ecological crisis, the human health crisis, and the climate crisis.  In this episode of SUGi Talks, we speak to Cecil Konijnendijk about how Nature-based Solutions, like our SUGi Pocket Forests, can help mitigate the growing issues in our cities.  With over 30 years of experience studying, teaching and advising with the likes of the United Nations on urban forestry and the implementation of Nature-based Solutions, Cecil is passionate about using trees to develop better cities and always stresses the importance of building meaningful relationships between people and places.  Together we uncover the barriers and challenges in implementing equitable green strategies in cities, and why it is so important.

    Moment EP06: Do Trees Really Speak to Each Other?

    Did you know that underneath the forest floor resources can be transferred from one tree to another in need? The Mycorrhizal Network is a fungal web that resides in soil. It functions like Nature’s internet, connecting many plants and enabling the transfer of resources and chemical messengers. On this excerpt of SUGi Talks we speak with ecologist and SUGi Forest Maker Gabriel Orrego about the magical inner workings of fungi.

    Losing Eden: Why our minds need the wild with Lucy Jones

    What would happen our minds if one day we woke up to a world with no trees, forests, or even grass? If birds and butterflies were a thing of the past, and green spaces were non-existent. What if our only experience of Nature was through a simulation on a screen? This is the stark future depicted in the opening of Lucy Jones’s book Losing Eden: Why Our Minds Need the Wild. It traces her own journey through addiction and depression, recalling the healing impact of Nature in her own recovery while diving deep into the studies and research that point to why being in Nature makes us feel good. In this episode of SUGi Talks we speak to Lucy about why she felt compelled to write Losing Eden, and together we explore the research that explains the science behind our profound connection to the living world.

  5. Wildlife Corridors: How one Forest Maker is creating habitat for endangered species in Queensland, Australia.

    Wildlife Corridors: How one Forest Maker is creating habitat for endangered species in Queensland, Australia.

    Roaming the lush rainforests of Northern Queensland and Papua New Guinea, the Cassowary bird is a striking sight to behold. Resembling something like an exquisite dinosaur at 6 feet tall, this at-risk flightless bird is now in a fight for survival. As a keystone species, the Cassowary is facing endangerment due to the fragmentation of its habitat by development and industrial agriculture.  On this episode of SUGi Talks, we speak with SUGi Forest Maker Brett Krause.  Since 2014, with our support, Brett has been planting Miyawaki forests in Tropical North Queensland as a way to create habitats for endangered species like the Cassowary and the Mahogany Glider.  Together we’ll speak about how he went from growing up on a sawmill witnessing deforestation, to now leading the way on Miyawaki forest building in Northern Australia.  Make sure you like and subscribe wherever you get podcasts for more SUGi Talks. 🌿 More info: SUGi: https://www.sugiproject.com

    Moment EP03: Pocket Forests are a proven way to help cities combat the urban heat island effect.

    Our cities are heating up, and fast. Rising global temperatures means the urban heat island effect in our cities will be amplified. Trees are a proven way to help cities combat this growing issue. On this excerpt of ⁠SUGi Talks⁠ we speak to Dr. Grey Coupland. Grey is our lead scientist at SUGi, and she holds the key to the rich data behind our Pocket Forests. With a PhD in ecology, her most recent work is dedicated to investigating the use and effectiveness of Miyawaki forests in cities, specifically their impact on cooling, biodiversity and wellbeing. Together we’ll speak about the hard data our Miyawaki Forests.  Thank you Dr. Grey.

  7. Reclaiming Beirut: Using Miyawaki Forests to green Beirut and restore hope in the city

    Reclaiming Beirut: Using Miyawaki Forests to green Beirut and restore hope in the city

    In 2019, after decades of corruption, intense pollution and a severe economic collapse, protestors flooded the streets of Beirut demanding change. Amongst them was environmental architect and one of our first SUGi Forest Makers, Adib Dada.  Deep into the revolution, Adib was in the second phase of his RiverLESS SUGi Pocket Forest, a project he designed with SUGi to help regenerate The Beirut River and reclaim it as a public space. On the anniversary of Lebanon’s Independence Day, after a protest at Martyrs Square, he took people directly from the streets and brought them to plant trees on the banks of The Beirut River. In this episode of SUGi Talks, we speak with Adib Dada about how he is planting Miyawaki forests in Beirut to tackle pollution, reclaim public space and restore hope in the Lebanese people. Together we speak about the monumental challenges the city faces, and how communities have come together to find alternative paths forward.  Make sure you like and subscribe wherever you get podcasts for more SUGi Talks. 🌿 SUGi: https://www.sugiproject.com/support⁠⁠

    Moment EP05: Healing the Earth; it's like we’re all dancing to the same music.

    “I can remember walking out and there being rocks here and there. The dirt was just powder; there wasn’t even weeds growing. After Ethan did all of the things with the soils. It’s beautiful because we’re rebuilding what was already here.  Think of when an eagle that went and caught a salmon, ate it and then left some of its remnants; that’s exactly what we are doing here. Because those are the nutrients that the soil needs.  Little by little not only did the plants grow but we started to have rabbits, frogs, mushrooms. I mean it’s own community. The relationship isn’t just powerful for people it’s healing the Earth, and it’s like we’re all dancing to the same music. Seeing the beauty of this garden, the reconnection of culture, identity, it’s great.”  —  Marylee Jones, Gatherer and Member of the Yakama Nation With thanks to Marylee Jones & Ethan Bryson Make sure you Like and Subscribe wherever you get podcasts for more SUGi Talks. 🌿 SUGi: ⁠https://www.sugiproject.com/support⁠
