Urban Ecology is an easy guide to create a safe neighborhood and park right where people live.

---

With climate change in the news, an urban core that has reached boiling point, and many children growing up without role models and with limited dreams, where is hope?There is a quiet experiment in Milwaukee that is turning heads. It starts with the simplicity of getting a city kid exploring their neighborhood park. How is it that so much life, community, and opportunity can grow from this unlikely soil? It's been called a miracle. It's contagious. It's spreading. It's exciting. And it works!This is the story of a group of ordinary people in a neighborhood who created something extraordinary. Readers will discover the power of getting a city kid outside in nature; that kindness does work; how to say no while following the yes; the value of clarity and focus; how to find abundance within their own diverse community by simply and humbly asking for help; ten tried and tested rules for raising money (a lot of it!) while having a ton of fun doing it; a positive, believable, and very real vision for the future of the environment (we've got this!); and... how to join the Urban Ecology movement.
