Future Cities: Tori Herridge meets Katrina Johnston-Zimmerman

Available for over a year

As a palaeontologist Tori Herridge spends her life poking at things from the past, but she has a secret obsession – the future. And she refuses to accept that it will be rubbish. In the first of three episodes exploring how future cities might work, she speaks to Katrina Johnston-Zimmerman, an urban anthropologist and founder of the Women Led Cities Initiative who is helping to redesign part of Philadelphia. Can the cities of the future be fairer for everyone? Could the ancient city of Çatalhöyük inspire us to adapt to climate change? And when do we finally get our flying cars?
