The Walrus hosted a conversation about the future of our cities and the nature of urban living in Canada. Among the speakers that night were chef Jamie Kennedy, director Deepa Mehta, and astronaut, neurologist, and photographer Roberta Bondar.
Bondar focused her talk on ecology. "I found myself really missing the sound of a bird when I was in space. I missed seeing life on the planet," she said. She went on to share several vivid pictures of trees, many of which she photographed in cemetaries. "[Trees] provide us with emotions, they provide us with protection, they provide us with all kinds of things that human beings cannot do," she continued.
