Green landscapes help and provide many environmental benefitsEnvironmental benefits that will improve the air qualityAir quality, water quality, biodiversity and habitat protection. The negative impact and pressure of an increase in population affect the environmentEnvironments locally, regionally and globally. Major environmental challengesChallenges which the cities are facing nowadays are the episodes of urban floods, urban heat, pollution, earthquakes, pandemicsPandemic, etc. It is agreed through different literature that green landscapes are essential for the wellbeingWellbeing of the people. Environmental strategiesStrategy for an urbanUrban area need to be supported by several factors that are biotic and abiotic. The ecosystem servicesEcosystem services in the cities and the chain of the ecosystem’s sustainabilitySustainability help to overcome the issues of environmental stresses in urban areas. Vegetation is considered one of the important biotic factors that immensely protects the environment and its surroundings in several ways. The density and spatial configuration of urban green landscapesUrban green landscapes like the canopy covers, buffers along the roads and patches of greens in between the built-up areas affect immediate environments and help in regulating the land surface temperaturesLand Surface Temperature (LST) and improve both local and city-wide urban air qualityAir quality. This chapter will focus on the different typologies and environmental services of urban green landscapesUrban green landscapes in Delhi. The green landscapes in Delhi are maintained by various organisations and that is mainstream at the levels of spatial plans. The Planning Norms have tried to mainstream green landscapes but still, the green landscapes are in process of incorporating the different current environmental challengesChallenges like Climate Change, Urban Heat IslandsUrban Heat Island effects and Air Pollution Management. Well-planned and designed green landscapes along different land useLand uses have positive impacts on the environment.
