GREENFRASTRUCTURES

Greenfrastructures is a concept means green + infrastructures. Found out by the founder of this blog.

Sustainability

Greenfrastructures aims to create and develop physical and digital environments to develop in the direction of sustainability.

Environment

Both the physical and the digital environment.

Urban: mostly inside cities, and towns
Interurban: between cities and megacities
Digital: inside and outside of cities, digitally connect people together

Resilience

Greenfrastructures need to be resilient to enhance the resilience of urban areas to various challenges, including climate change, natural disasters, and social stresses

Digital environments need have these key features to be more resilient:

Decentralization
Fault Tolerant
Work with immutable and transparent data and systems
Distributed Storage and Redundancy
Interoperability and Interconnectivity
Community Governance and Adaptability
Cybersecurity and Privacy

Connectivity

Physical

Emphasizes the connectivity and integration of natural elements within the urban and digital abric.

It seeks to create

networks of green spaces,
corridors, and
pathways that allow for the movement of wildlife, support ecological processes, and enhance biodiversity.

Digital

Just like in the physical spaces we need not to forget that the same, or similar connectivity is just as important in the digital areas as well, since we can not create an effective infrastructure and real results with seperated, isolated islands.

Human Well-being

Physical

Greenfrastructures recognizes the importance of human well-being and aims to improve the quality of life for urban residents.

Provides opportunities for

recreation,
physical activity, and
social interaction,

offering spaces that promote mental and physical health.

Digital

In the digital framework and spaces we need to work on different spaces and in physical life too, where we work

for each other and not against each other,
to understand each other, but respect boundaries, behaviour and everything else too,
understand physical needs, freedom and the needs that we need more than just work 24/7.

Community Engagement

Physical

Greenfrastructures encourages community engagement and participation in the planning, design, and management of urban spaces.
Aesthetic Appeal

Digital

The importance of community governance, which is more like a self-governance.

This refers to the ability of a community to

make decisions,
establish rules, and
govern the community itself without relying on central authorities or intermediaries.

In the context of web3 ecosystems and blockchain technology, self-governance is often facilitated through decentralized governance mechanisms, smart contracts, and token-based voting systems

Aesthetic Appeal

Physical

Recognizes the importance of aesthetics in urban environments.

Aims to create visually appealing landscapes that enhance the beauty and character of cities. Incorporating green elements.

Digital

Digitally that means it needs to have design, experience what you feel aestethically attractive for everyone, not just for digital aboriginals. It needs to be attractive and the experience needs to be interesting and simple.
