Prospects of using inert materials in garden and park construction
Keywords:
inert materials, urbanization, secondary resourcesAbstract
The article considers the prospects
for the use of inert materials in landscape construction in the context of growing urbanization. The article analyzes modern challenges related to environmental safety, the need to improve the quality of landscaping of green areas,
and adaptation to climate change. The key advantages of inert materials are identified, in particular their durability, environmental neutrality, physical and mechanical stability, and the
ability to reduce anthropogenic load. The paper
reviews national and international experience in
the use of both natural and secondary materials
(in particular, recycled concrete and plastic) for
landscaping. Special attention is paid to issues
of standardization and the need to develop new
technologies that contribute to the sustainable
development of urban areas. The article emphasizes the relevance of integrating environmental
approaches into the practice of landscape design at all levels of planning.
Keywords: inert materials, landscape construction, urbanization, environmental safety,
sustainable development, secondary resources.
