巴塞罗那动物园

The city is now in the process of creating 783,300 sqmetres of green open space, including an area around the landmark Sagrada Familia basilica, and 49,000 sqmetres of "greened" streets.

这座城市现在正在建设783,300平方米的绿色开放空间，包括地标萨格拉达家庭教堂区域，还有49000平方米的“绿色化”街道。

The city is also encouraging bird and insect life with around 200 nesting towers for birds and bats, 40 beehives and around 80 plantings designed specifically as insect "hotels". The council has also published a biopersity atlas listing all the city's flora and fauna.

这个城市同样鼓励鸟类与昆虫的繁殖，为鸟类和蝙蝠建造了约200个筑巢塔，40个蜂巢和大约80个特别设计的昆虫“旅馆”的花圃。委员会还发布了一个生物多样性图集，列出了城市里的所有动植物。

When it comes to embracing nature in its cities, Spain lags behind many countries. But it is hoped that barcelona's new policy will go some way to rectifying that.

在与大自然融为一体方面，西班牙落后于许多国家。不过人们希望巴塞罗那的新政策能扭转这一局面。

"In a city like Barcelona, it's a case of replacing what exists with green infrastructure," says Lorena Escuer, who runs Hydrobiology, a natural pest control company, and has worked in Barcelona on a pilot scheme called Alcorques Vivos, which plants wildflowers at the base of trees in the streets rather than surrounding them with pavement or grating.

“像巴塞罗那这样的城市，就是一个用绿色基础设施替换现存设施的例子”，一家叫Hydrobiology的自然害虫控制公司的负责人洛雷娜・埃斯库尔说，她也在巴塞罗那运营一个叫“Alcorques Vivos”的实验性项目，就是在树下面种野花，而不是铺上路面或者篦子板。

"It's not just having a park surrounded by asphalt but introducing nature into the city," she says. "People needre-educating. Their idea of a clean space is somewhere where there's no life, where the ecosystem is dead. There's this idea that nature is something outside and that what's natural for the city is for there to be nothing."

“不是去建一个被沥青包围的公园，而是要将大自然融入这个城市”。她说，“人们需要更新观念。他们对干净环境的概念就是一个没有生命，死生态的地方。这种观点认为大自然就是城市外面的东西，对城市来说，干干净净没有东西才是自然的。”
