BIG has a plan for the planet: can it be done? __ Bjarke Ingels

Unpacking BIG’s Plan for the Planet! 🌎

Bjarke Ingels returns for a second conversation on the tenth and penultimate episode of Ecogradia season 4, where we probe his blueprint to drive sustainability at the planetary scale.

Plan for the Planet is a framework that lays down ideas on how to shape a world where both nature and people thrive.

It takes on the fundamental challenges of energy, transport, industry, biodiversity, resources, pollution, water, food, and prosperous living conditions for a world with up to 10 billion inhabitants.
