It introduces Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) in urban planning that integrated with aim to enhance resilience slow down decline, which can be applied two areas: through conception new green neighbourhoods; regeneration re-greening existing but neglected parts city, such as postindustrial brownfields or economically weak districts. Contact nature is essential for human existence, wellbeing good quality life. Green spaces –big small– all contribute health wellbeing. However, many cities, including U.S. Europe, do not offer residents easy access space within city. Improving better extending gardens parks will deliver large number benefits, ecosystem services, water management enhanced flood control, slowing loss, contributing food security, potential restore damaged ecosystems. Furthermore, additional NBS help keep cool during heatwaves improve microclimate. As most growing warming, scale issue significant. For example, 2020, European Union were home over 70 percent Europe’s population, this figure expected increase 80 middle century. This translates 36 million citizens Europe 2050 alone, who need housing, employment, care (EU-Commission, 2018).
