Talk:Green infrastructure

message: The "GIS applications" section needs more detail or at the very least a reference.
The article should also relate to EU-definitions of green infrastructure:
Definition:
Green Infrastructure is the interconnected network of natural areas including some agricultural land,
such as greenways, wetlands, parks, forest preserves and native plant communities, and marine areas
that naturally regulate storm flows, temperatures, flooding risk, and water, air and ecosystem quality.
Defined in the EU WHITE PAPER: Adapting to climate change: Towards a European framework for action
and used in the following context:
Green Infrastructure can play a crucial role in
adaptation in providing essential resources for social and economic purposes under extreme
climatic conditions. Examples include improving the soil’s carbon and water storage capacity,
and conserving water in natural systems to alleviate the effect of droughts and to prevent
floods, soil erosion and desertification.
It is also mentioned as important contribution towards sustainability in the document on
REGIONAL POLICY CONTRIBUTING TO SUSTAINABLE GROWTH IN EUROPE 2020
"Green infrastructure" refers to forests, rivers, coastal zones, parks, eco-corridors and other
natural or semi-natural features which constitute key elements for the provision of ecosystem
services. Developing green infrastructure is key to maintaining a sustainable environment in
which our economy and society can prosper. In particular it helps to adapt to climate change
and contributes to the creation and proper management of ecological networks. Thus,
managing authorities should ensure that the impact on natural areas and land use is fully
examined in their appraisal of all infrastructural projects. The use of appropriate instruments
such as integrated coastal and river basin management should be reinforced in particular
where Natura 2000 areas are likely to be affected.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.174.18.1 (talk) 16:37, 10 January 2013 (UTC)

Pat736 entry - work up until 11/7/14
Green infrastructure is a union between the building of structures and the surrounding natural environment to solve urban and environmental problems, such as heat stress, biodiversity, water management, sustainable energy production, climate change and more, all over the world.  Green infrastructure is most commonly used to help control and redirect stormwater runoff and integrate stormwater management into everyday infrastructure in countries such as Sweden, US, UK, and Germany. This multi-functional approach is not only important to the environment, but has also shown positive economic effects by reducing costs.Yujunliu (talk) 21:57, 4 November 2014 (UTC)
