Green InfrastructureLand Use Planning
Green Infrastructure Land Use Planning involves the strategic planning and design of natural and semi-natural areas within urban and rural environments to provide environmental, social, and economic benefits. This includes the incorporation of green spaces, such as parks, wetlands, and green roofs, into land use plans to improve air and water quality, reduce flooding, enhance biodiversity, and create more sustainable and resilient communities. The goal of green infrastructure land use planning is to balance development with the protection and enhancement of natural resources for the long-term well-being of both people and the environment.
