Abstract

This article delves into the concept of green infrastructure, a visionary and sustainable approach to urban development that seeks to harmonize human activities with the natural environment. Green infrastructure involves the strategic incorporation of natural and semi-natural elements within urban landscapes, presenting an alternative to traditional "gray" infrastructure. Through the integration of features such as urban parks, tree canopies, permeable surfaces, green roofs, and water features, green infrastructure aims to enhance environmental quality, promote biodiversity, and build resilient communities. The article explores the key components of green infrastructure and highlights its manifold benefits, ranging from environmental sustainability and improved public health to resilience in the face of climate change. By fostering a connection between urban life and the natural world, green infrastructure emerges as a pathway towards urban resilience and environmental harmony, offering cities a blueprint for a more sustainable and livable future.
