城市正在迅速发展,导致全球土地覆盖发生变化,绿色基础设施水平下降。适应气候变化现在正成为城市的一个重要议程项目。使用绿色基础设施方法进行基于生态系统的气候适应的潜力对许多城市很有吸引力,但必须更有效地提出实施的商业理由。有大量证据表明,绿色基础设施对人类健康和福祉大有裨益,并在气候适应方面有许多应用。尽管有这些证据,但绿色基础设施惠益与改善健康结果之间的联系仍有待充分量化。国际灰色文献中表明绿色基础设施的潜在和实质性经济健康价值的研究有限。此外,这些研究使用不同的方法框架,使得系统地评估和比较货币估计数变得困难。显然缺乏专门评估绿色基础设施项目的经济健康价值的同行评议研究,这凸显了开展这类工作的必要性。消除这些研究差距将有助于加快制定政策,推动落实绿色基础设施和基于生态系统的气候适应成果,以支持可持续城市发展。
Cities are growing rapidly resulting in changing land cover and reduced levels of green infrastructure globally. Climate change adaptation is now becoming a critical agenda item for cities. The potential for ecosystem-based climate adaptation using a green infrastructure approach is appealing for many cities but the business case for implementation has to be made more effectively. There is a substantial body of evidence that shows green infrastructure is significantly beneficial for human health and wellbeing and that it has many applications for climate adaptation. Despite this evidence, the linkage between green infrastructure benefits and improved health outcomes remains to be adequately quantified. There are limited studies from the international grey literature that indicate the potential and substantial economic health value of green infrastructure. Moreover, these studies use different methodological frameworks, making it difficult to systematically evaluate and compare the monetary estimates. The explicit lack of peer-reviewed studies specifically evaluating the economic health value of green infrastructure projects highlights the need for such work to be undertaken. Addressing these research gaps would assist to accelerate policy development to drive the implementation of green infrastructure and ecosystem-based climate adaptation outcomes to support sustainable urban development.
