Ecosystem-based disaster and climate resilience : integration of blue-green infrastructure in sustainable development

Ecosystem-based disaster and climate resilience : integration of blue-green infrastructure in sustainable development / Mahua Makherjee, Rajib Singh, editors.

This book provides an introduction to the critical role of ecosystem-based disaster risk resilience (Eco-DRR) for building community resilience to multiple environmental risks such as rising heat, water stress, and pollution. Blue-green infrastructure (BGI) is an Eco-DRR tool that is an under-explor...
