Looks at the development of biodiversity in city centre sites in London and discusses the conflicts that can arise between the needs of animals and plant life and the desires of developers. Discusses some examples of green buildings and shows that features which benefit nature can also be good for the occupiers and their businesses, as well as having obvious aesthetic benefits. The author also provides some details of attempts made by Westminster Council to support an agenda of 'greening'.
