When the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic hit the world, many countries had no choice but restricting industrial and human activity and lockdown cities for preventing the spread of infection. However, COVID-19 has indirectly had a positive impact on our environments. Substantial evidence shows water and air quality improvements in many countries due to the lockdowns. The COVID-19 crisis has brought attention to new ways of thinking about sustainable planetary health and human health and security. Green infrastructure (GI) is desired as a new sustainable nature-based solution that helps people achieve better mental and physical well-being with improved air quality. GI incorporates natural or seminatural features, including parks, open spaces and blue/green spaces. What kind of green spaces function can be utilized at a specific place forms a critical issue for future GI planning. Thus, this chapter focuses on green spaces and examines the association between access to green spaces and air quality under the political mobility restrictions, and suggests more appropriate greenspace designs for addressing GI with/post-COVID-19 world.
