Basic facts on BGD project•Enhance the synergy of urban blue (water) and green (vegetation) components interacting other urban Eco-SS
•BGD promotes a new paradigm for efficient planning and management of the urban environment:
•It maximizes ecosystem services’ performance, minimizes environmental footprint and increases the cities’ adaptive capacity to CC,
• Provide effective, multifunctional Blue Green Solutions (BGS) to support urban adaptation to CC.
•Combines the top-down and bottom-up approaches,

The Broadening of Urban Water Systems Design
WSUD: Water Sensitive Urban Design [CIRIA, 2013]
Tackling the Integrated solutions for adaptation ofban ecosystem services for CC
Optimal solution for adaptation of urban spaces to CC based on BG interaction with urban ecosystem services

Capital cost benefits:- Cheaper water systems- Cheaper renewable energy plant- Cheaper artificial energy plant- ( Often cheaper building)- Better living environment quality
Resulting benefits:- lower building running cost- Lower occupants running costs- Better quality indoor and outdoor - Environment >>Marketing stronger / higher profitspossible

Urban adiabatic cooling – particular selection of deciduous threes with high leaf surface area- existing - Carpinus Betulus, Catalpa bignonioides, Acer sp., Juglans nigra, Platanus sp- new - Liqiudambar sp.
Passive heating - threes that loose leafs firstweek in October- Acer platanoides, Alnus glutinosa,
Winter wind barrier - evergreen threes -existing - Picea abies, Taxus baccata, Pinus sp., Pseudotsuga sp.
-new - Pinus nigra, Thuja columnaris, -Juniperus communis „Hibernica“
Semi open space - for social activities central zone threes - high treetop( 3-4m) - Celtis Australis, Rhustiphina, Betula verrucosa
Wind corridor for the building free cooling - summer night
Wind corridor for the urban adiabaticcooling - summer day
Clusters orientation – south /north to maximize passive heating and sunenergy harvesting by PV and Solarcollectors

The role of today’s meeting
- Identification of interests and “hot” topics- Indication of needs in India- Link of transportation -> smile like flowers - Focal points, spin-out now or later- Initial project, potential clients- Links to Horizon 2020- Forthcoming events in 2014- Your initiatives
