Abstract

This chapter explores the intricate relationship between climate change, urban resilience, and nature-based solutions (NBS), with a particular emphasis on the pivotal role of green infrastructure (GI). It delves into the profound impacts of climate-induced events such as floods and droughts on water resources, human populations, and infrastructure. Through an analysis of Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and the integration of innovative approaches into urban planning frameworks, the text underscores the indispensable role of GI in enhancing resilience and sustainability. It highlights the multifaceted benefits of GI and NBS in mitigating climate change impacts, promoting biodiversity, and fostering vibrant, liveable urban environments.
