Além disso, os planos de manejo de todas as 25 unidades de conservação da cidade, o que corresponde a 38% do território municipal, foram elaborados. Alguns fatores que serão avaliados são a importância histórica da área, a evolução da ocupação, a fauna, a flora e os impactos ambientais provocados pela presença do homem nas áreas. Concluída a categorização, será possível definir se a unidade se presta a uso sustentável ou ficará sujeita à proteção integral. Em todo esse contexto, o papel do aumento e manutenção do verde dessas áreas é primordial.A Prefeitura do Recife, por meio da Secretaria de Meio Ambiente e Sustentabilidade (SMAS), oferece à população o projeto “Bora Plantar", que faz parte do Plano de Arborização da Capital e visa ordenar e planejar o plantio de árvores no município. Além disso, o “Bora Plantar” tem o objetivo de incentivar o plantio, ampliar a vegetação e fomentar o paisagismo dos espaços de uso coletivo na cidade. O projeto vai atuar de duas maneiras: através do número 156 e de acordo com o planejamento da SMAS, que terá como critérios os locais com baixa cobertura do verde e elevada temperatura de superfície, além de vias com rotas cicláveis. A arborização urbana se faz necessária para equilibrar o clima, aumentar a permeabilização do solo e proporcionar melhorias na qualidade de vida. Além do plantio, através do 156 o cidadão também pode solicitar os serviços de poda; tratamento fitossanitário; análise das raízes; destoca; pontos de confinamento dentre outros. Para alguns serviços, é necessária vistoria técnica para análise e parecer.Na busca por aumentar a cobertura vegetal da cidade, o prefeito Geraldo Julio lançou em 2019 a Maratona Verde. A iniciativa inédita realizou o plantio de 10 mil mudas, no período entre 3 e 9 de junho do ano passado. A ação contou com o apoio da sociedade civil, por meio de escolas, igrejas, condomínios particulares e lojas. | Finance secured | Public-private partnership | BRL Brazilian Real | http://www2.recife.pe.gov.br/node/290632 | 1645727 | 2019 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-34.8829, -8.05783]} | 2021-07-16T02:13:47.203 | |||

Apenas em vias públicas estima-se que haja cerca de 1 milhão de árvores, sem contar a arborização dos parques (09), praças (681), unidades de conservação (4), dos morros e áreas particulares e estaduais. A área verde pública municipal (somando praças urbanizadas, parques e unidades de conservação), totaliza 21.523.802m², ou 15,27m²/habitante. Além de ser uma política do município de anualmente ampliar o número de áreas verdes urbanizadas, está em planejamento a compra de áreas lindeiras às UCs para ampliar as áreas preservadas do município, medidas que contribuem para o enfrentamento das ondas de calor, qualidade do ar, conservação hídrica, biodiversidade e qualidade de vida, entre outros. Além disso, como forma de enfrentar as altas temperaturas e reduzir as ilhas de calor, a Equipe de Planejamento e Implantação da Arborização da SMAMS mapeou os bairros mais carentes de arborização e está realizando o plantio georreferenciado de mudas. O projeto também prevê plantios para a recuperação de Áreas de Preservação Permanentes e incentiva a participação da população no cuidado com as mudas. Com início em 15 de julho de 2020, até 1 de agosto foram plantadas 483 novas mudas na cidade. Receberam 171 árvores as seguintes vias, identificadas como com pouca o inexistente arborização: Voluntários da Pátria, José Silva, Grécia, Júlio Juraci da Luz, Jaques Machado e Ely Leite Urdapilleta. A APP da Praça Jornalista Orlando Loureiro recebeu o plantio de outras 312 mudas nativas. O Viveiro Municipal forneceu 172 mudas para estes trechos. A previsão é de plantio de 1.865 mudas de árvores ate o fim deste ano: 715 em vias públicas e 1.150 em APPs. Por meio do uso de GPS, as mudas estão sendo georreferenciadas, o que torna possível identificar a localização de cada árvore plantada, espécie e também data do plantio. A aplicação / mapa de acesso público das árvores georreferenciadas está em fase final de desenvolvimento, para posterior teste e disponibilização. A contratação da empresa terceirizada ocorreu por licitação - pregão menor preço. Esta primeira fase de implantação está com financiamento garantido, por meio de recursos próprios do município. A expectativa, porém, é abrir nova licitação para a manutenção do projeto de implantação da arborização urbana. Além do georreferenciamento, as calçadas que receberão plantios primeiro têm as áreas do futuro canteiro marcadas com tinta e desenho em stencil. As marcações dos técnicos de planejamento arbóreo orientam as equipes de execução dos plantios, ao mesmo tempo em que comunicam aos moradores que o local receberá uma miniárea verde. Os canteiros têm tamanho técnico adequado ao porte das árvores, e ajudam a absorver água da chuva. Além do acompanhamento dos plantios pela equipe técnica da Smams, o porto-alegrense pode se voluntariar para ajudar a proteger as mudas. Os interessados em se tornar “guardiões das árvores” recebem, por e-mail, um guia de como cuidar das mudas e tem canal direto com a equipe de planejamento arbóreo, para avisar sobre problemas com os plantios. A Unidade de Educação Ambiental percorre os locais de plantios para buscar voluntários, distribuir folhetos e informar sobre as espécies de árvores que estão sendo implantadas. | Finance secured | Local | BRL Brazilian Real | 748000 | 748000 | 748000 | https://prefeitura.poa.br/gp/noticias/marchezan-participa-do-plantio-georreferenciado-de-arvores-na-voluntarios-da-patria | 1479101 | 2010 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[51, 30]} | 2021-07-16T02:13:47.203 |

In particular, the PUG must contain a specific Green Plan, which ensures an organic view of the urban green system, where individual interventions are part of a unique project.On the other hand, the Municipality intends to proceed above all in the sense of a qualitative improvement of urban green areas. In this sense, participation in the European project PERFECT - Planning for Environment and Resource eFficiency in European Cities and Towns - aims to demonstrate how the multiple uses of green infrastructure can provide social, economic and environmental benefits and to enhance the capacities and knowledge of public decision-makers and administrators in order to encourage greater investments in green infrastructure. General objectives of the project: increasing awareness of the value of green infrastructures for economic growth; identifying good replicable practices; increasing investment and improving administrative action through the involvement of the authorities of structural funds management and strengthening of professional skills for the development of new plans; developing action plans capable of exploiting the multiple benefits generated by strategic investment in the green infrastructure.The project is divided into two phases: first phase - transfer of knowledge between project partners through the identification of good practices in international contexts, aimed at drafting the action plan with the support of a group of local stakeholders; second phase - monitoring of the implementation of the actions foreseen in the action plan. | Finance secured | International (ODA) | EUR Euro | 261.063 | https://www.interregeurope.eu/perfect/ | 132009 | 2018 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[11.619, 44.8357]} | 2021-07-16T02:13:47.203 | ||||

Typical design elements include green roofs, rain garden bio-retention systems, permeable pavements, rainwater harvesting, urban forests, constructed wetlands and other strategies to manage rainwater. It improves the performance of drainage systems and can make real estate projects safer and more attractive to buyers.After interviews with cities with GSI programs, external stakeholders, and city leadership, and analysis of costs and benefits, the following incentive programs are recommended:Integrated GSI Development RulesProperty Tax AbatementsAward and Recognition ProgramIncreased Permitting Process Certainty and Speed | Feasibility finalized, and finance partially secured | Local | USD US Dollar | 2000000 | http://www.houstontx.gov/igd/ | 2343365 | 2019 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-95.3694, 29.7602]} | 2021-07-16T02:13:47.203 | ||

La masa forestal es fundamental para la protección de nacientes, arroyos y ríos. A través de su preservación y recomposición, en caso de haber sido eliminada, vamos a obtener resultados como: 1) estabilidad de márgenes y barrancas. 2) disminución de la cantidad de partículas arrastradas por los cursos de agua, ya que actúa como filtro tanto de componentes sólidos del suelo como de agroquímicos que son lavados por el agua de lluvia. 3) aumento de la infiltración del agua en el suelo. 4) protección de nacientes. 5) hábitat equilibrado para fauna y flora permitiendo su reproducción y sobrevivencia, permite que disfrutemos de un entorno más ameno y saludable. Desde el punto de vista ecológico, el gran número de especies existente en la masa forestal nativa cumple un papel estratégico en la conservación de la biodiversidad de flora y fauna. Es importante ver al árbol como algo más que un simple proveedor de madera, si bien este producto es de importancia para nuestra cultura. Muchos de ellos sirven de alimento para la fauna de la zona, son conocidos en la zona como “plantas frutíferas”. Entre estas, y dentro de la flora nativa de la Selva Paranaense, podemos citar a: Arecastrum romanzoffianum (Pindó), Schinus molle var. Areira (Mollecito), Eugenia pyriformis (Ubajay), Eugenia involucrata (Cerella), Allophyllus edulis (Kokú), Eugenia uniflora (Pitanga), entre otros.
