Abstract

Picture this – you are wandering through a park in the heart of a bustling city. The air is fresh, trees sway gently above you, and a nearby stream gurgles over smooth stones. The landscape feels wild yet thoughtfully crafted. Little do you know, this beautiful green space is pulling double duty – keeping oodwaters at bay, ltering rainwater, and even cooling the city down during those blazing hot weather. Welcome to the world of ‘Nature-Based Solutions’ (NBS), where nature is not just a backdrop; it is the main event in solving the challenges of modern life.
