Function, Barriers and Policies of Green Infrastructure Construction in Urban Environment

Abstract

Full implementation of green urban planning and development has become the main theme of urban revival and development, but the construction and development of green infrastructure occupies a very important position in green urban development. Green infrastructure includes the micro-energy, high efficiency and low pollution engineering-form infrastructure and the urban green space network, which has at least the functions of improving urban environment and saving energy and reducing consumption. Factors restricting the planning and construction of green infrastructure have the changes in the philosophy of urban planning and design, green technological innovation and grant investment costs. However, because China is at the stage of urbanization and low carbon strategy development, there are still many opportunities. To accelerate the planning and construction of green infrastructure, it is necessary to take policies and measures on relevant standards and specifications, green assessments and audits, taxation and financial support and other aspects.
