week 3 Blue and green infrastructure and approaches to energy efficiency The whole complexity of the link amongst biological community alongside the urban environment based on the interaction of human culture along with the natural environment is termed as urban ecology (Ian Douglas et al, 2010). In the meanwhile, the landscape is a natural network that connects and protects the blue and green infrastructure. The natural network might offer providing, regulatory, and cultural actions. open/green space benefits It demonstrated the importance of physical and mental health to inhabitants of cities.. Based on findings, having access to local greenery is related with greater mental health; yet, access is frequently balanced. It is therefore necessary to assess how nature-based therapies safeguard and support mental wellness (Carly Wood et al, 2022). Meanwhile, it provides the possibility of approachability and accessibility. It is also resolution complexity in the direction of the shade of green.
Blue and green infrastructure The stressed natural grassland represents the green structure, whereas freshwater is the blue structure, as it developed to be enhanced grassland by rate of change and plots of land usage. Then, a building was constructed based on both of the blue and green structures.

According to the analysis, the suggested location is not connected with a corridor connecting patches on the east and west. Aside from that, the topography analysis shows that the site is always level, but near the river, there is a slight slope that may generate a minor flood.
