Explore the profound impact of nature on urban dwellers in this thought-provoking TEDx talk by Koji Tamura. Discover how embracing nature within city life can lead to a richer, more fulfilling urban experience. Learn why cities should be viewed as part of nature rather than separate from it, and how this perspective shift can enhance our daily lives. Gain insights into concrete ways of appreciating nature's presence in urban settings, moving beyond vague positive feelings to tangible benefits. Tamura, an actor who immerses himself in nature through activities like mountaineering, climbing, and skiing, shares his vision for harmonious coexistence between cities and nature. Be inspired to approach nature with humility, connect with it more deeply, and learn from its joy and strength, ultimately bridging the gap between urban life and the natural world.
