Abstract :
The interaction between climatic phenomena, pathogenic states, and environmental conditions require thinking about the origin of environmental threats as result of altered man-nature relationship. Environmental emergencies become part of everyday life and prelude to new conditions of normality. The paper, with an analytical and deductive methodology and a demanding-performing approach, investigates the Green Infrastructures for the urban project. The paper analyses the ability of Green Infrastructures to reduce vulnerability to climate impacts through the increase of biodiversity, positive effects of green open spaces on health and security against the threats posed by pathogens and the role of the digital network to support the maintenance of Green Infrastructures performance over time.
