Cover story: Reinventing the high street

Big brands moving out, pandemic closures and online shopping have hit high streets hard. But they’re not dead, just in flux. We uncover the ways that retail centres are being reimagined to better serve their communities, and the climate.

Other features include: How to become news-resilient • Beyond donations: other ways to help Ukraine • Quitting high-carbon careers to work for the planet • The world’s largest urban garden • Prescribing comedy lessons to trauma survivors • Community-owned power • Planting orchards in prisons • Making steel sustainable • The magic in noticing small things • Ethical flowers
