Multi-problem and socially just approach to climate adaptation in the dense city center

JUSTNature

It started as a bad day. Then I went out and saw that the storks have returned (very late this year) and chosen the old nest by the house. Then I discovered a lizard (khm, I wanted to say a tiny dragon) has moved into my freshly built rock garden. And two hawks were circling above the house. Plenty of joy at once. Now it's a wonderful day!

I didn't manage to capture the flying hawks, but here are the storks, the rock garden and the lizard:
