Orenstein fulfilling ecological vision for Technion campus in Israel
Unbeknownst to most of the campus community of students, faculty, staff and guests, the actual biological community of the Technion campus is far greater than the thousands of humans that walk in and out of its gates every day. Members of this expanded community make their homes on or between the campus buildings, in the landscaped strips between the buildings, or in a great expanse of planted and natural forest on the southern slopes of the campus. These individuals fly and flutter, crawl and run, burrow or just stand in one place - they are the previously undocumented biodiversity of the Technion campus, and they are now full partners in planning and management of the campus.
