Presentation
Words from gardeners - market gardeners in Versailles
What are the issues and challenges from the point of view of those who have their hands in the ground, who are observing and adapting to climate change on a daily basis? What are the concrete impacts today at +1.5°C? Will cities still be alive at +4C°? What are the lessons and challenges for the people who think, build and live in cities today and tomorrow?
