Why this card
Positive News reports an ambitious plan to reconnect London's wilder edges so ten million people get a more biodiverse capital. A continuous ring of green space around a world city is a decade-scale project, so 2038 is a believable year for it to be complete. The pictorial map shows the finished outcome: one unbroken green loop a Londoner could walk all the way round.
