“Green infrastructure” is a term that is appearing more and more frequently in land conservation and development discussions across the country and around the world. Green Infrastructure: Smart Conservation for the 21st Century takes readers from the origins and history of this concept to its implementation and benefits today - demonstrating how green infrastructure plans can allow for both future growth and the protection of significant natural resources.

For an in-depth examination of the topic, see The Conservation Fund's comprehensive text, also by Benedict and McMahon, Green Infrastructure: Linking Landscapes and Communities (Island Press, 2006).
