A Cold War relic becomes a biodiversity haven, a Pokemon Go for trees and seagrass gets a second life. This week's eco wins come from some unexpected places.
In 1988, Tilda Swinton toured round the Berlin Wall on a bicycle - starting and ending at the Brandenburg Gate - accompanied by filmmaker Cynthia Beatt.

I will have to give it a looksie. I imagine a lot has changed since then though.
Can the route of the Berlin Wall be walked or is it limited to touristy sections ?
There’s a movie with Tilda Swinton riding her bike along the route of the Berlin wall. Looked very walkable
