Low-Carbon Green Space Construction in Urban Communities.

Low-carbon green space is an integral part of low-carbon communities. It promotes the sustainable development of communities by increasing "carbon sinks" and reducing "carbon sources". This article analysed the direct and indirect carbon emissions resulting from green space construction in communities, and proposed the improvement strategies from the three perspectives, planning, design and technology applications in low-carbon green space. The planning of low-carbon green space involves increasing carbon sinks, improving the quality of community green space, optimizing the night view of green space and selecting local seedlings. The design can incorporate low-carbon materials and interplanting designs. The low-carbon green space application technology can include vertical greening, green roofs, rainwater utilization, energy-saving lighting and waste recycling. The sustainable development of communities can be effectively promoted through the low-carbon construction of green space.
