The social Function of Green Infrastructure
Green infrastructure becomes one of the essential elements in the process of urban design, it provides a series of functions that makes a better future of city life, such as ecological reconstruction and resistance to climate change. However, green infrastructure also plays an important role in social function, vegetations could improve living conditions through two main routes.
Firstly, green infrastructure provides spaces for citizens to recreate. As for enhancing the connection between green spaces and streets, infrastructure like parks and other kind of landscape often uses the combination of trees, grasses and water body that follows aesthetic principles, thus creates enough room to invite people to join in the green spaces, and communicate with others. Vegetations with the scientific arrangement under aesthetic principles could provide the space for releasing pressure, getting exercise and having fun. So that it is necessary to design a proper amount of green parks in cities.
Additionally, green infrastructures also provide functions like defining culture. Sustainable development tells the story that urban design without the idea of sustainability could not exist for a long period because it could not be accepted by natural environmental system, and green infrastructure design that follows the natural energy flow could not only achieve its original goal--ecological reconstruction, but also provide a social function like public education. People who join in green space and communicate with natural environment could easily find that the importance of protecting natural systems. Vegetations in green area could acknowledge citizens that what kind of plants could survive in their neighborhood, which could prevent ecological disasters like biological invasion.
