Nowadays, green chemistry and its advantages are generating interest of researchers toward ecofriendly biosynthesis of the metallic nanoparticles. In this research, a rapid, simple and green method was developed for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles using aqueous extract of Prangos ferulaceae leaves. The synthesized silver nanoparticles were characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, sc...

This commentary turns a critical lens on the perspectives of labour in potential green transition. It shows what changes when we focus worldwide social labour—the which most humanity currently performs—and its impact, going beyond climate to damages from mining and biodiversity other elements ecology. Such an optic forces scepticism about approaches only consider North it comes large-scale Inde...

Green space exposure is beneficial to the physical and mental health of community residents, but spatial distribution green inequitable. Due data availability, equality or justice studies typically use administrative units as contextual areas evaluate spaces exposure, which macro-scale may lead biased estimates it ignores fine-scale (e.g., gardens, lawns), that residents are more frequently exp...

The implementation of a Green Infrastructure (GI) involves several actors and governance scales that need adequate knowledge support. multifunctionality GI entails the cross-scale approach, which combines assessments conducted at different levels active stakeholder engagement. This paper provides methodology to implement approach support deployment Regional GI. was tested in Lombardy Region (no...

Conventional green roofs have been widely accepted as a climate change adaptation strategy. However, little is known about the potential of blue–green and rooftop farms to control urban stormwater improve microclimates. This study evaluates farmed roof’s hydrologic thermal performance over an entire growing season in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The runoff discharge from three plots planted with v...
