Urban to Wild
From Cities to the Wild - Local Roots, Global Impact!
Planting Seeds for the Future
Urban to Wild connects mini forests in schools and cities to wider rewilding projects worldwide - tackling climate change, restoring biodiversity, and reconnecting people with nature.
What is Urban to Wild?
Urban to Wild is a global initiative by Whole Wild World that turns urban spaces into living gateways to the wild.
• Mini forests grow 10x faster and absorb 30x more carbon than conventional plantings.
• They reconnect communities to nearby conservation and rewilding areas.
• Each site is a space for education, climate resilience, and biodiversity.
Why It Matters
-
Climate Action – Urban forests act as natural carbon sinks, cooling cities and storing carbon.
-
Windows to the Wild – Small forests inspire people in cities to value and support larger conservation projects.
-
Community & Education – Schools, families, and communities engage directly in planting and learning.
-
Shared Benefits – Eco-tourism and local enterprises grow around connected projects.
How It Works
1. Plant – Create a mini forest in a school, city, or public space.
2. Connect – Link it to nearby wild rewilding projects.
3. Grow – Track biodiversity, carbon, and community benefits.
4. Share – Inspire others through stories, data, and partnerships.
