Urban parks development

Lately, the greeningofemptyurbanspaces becomes a very popular topic for the moreandmore congested cities. The most of the world population lives in the cities and the problems of pollution are increasing. Permaculture could be implemented in urban projects for building of both beautiful and at the same time edible gardens in the cities.

This could be attractive for people who maintain public and private gardens /also hotel green spaces/. The urban parks development is aimed to motivate the local urban communities to improve the urban environment where they live and work instead of planning movement to the surroundings of the cities.
