In the heart of Kuala Lumpur, volunteers are bringing life back to the city’s green spaces — turning neglected land into thriving urban forests. One of the groups leading this charge is the Free Tree Society, which has been championing urban biodiversity for over a decade. We’re joined by Carolyn Joan Lau, General Manager of the Free Tree Society, to talk about their work, including one of their latest efforts, the Pulai Trail Urban Forest, one of KL’s last remaining green urban spaces.
