Comparative Analysis of Landscape Greening Development in the Context of Sustainable Development--Taking Shanghai and Nanjing as an Example
Abstract
The cause of urban landscaping and greening is in a stage of development and is being explored in various cities. Most people are gradually realizing and accepting the value of landscaping as a way to maintain and improve the urban ecological environment, as well as to promote social well-being and sustainable economic development, as the idea of sustainable urban development continues to gain traction. Therefore, exploring how to continue to develop landscaping in the context of sustainable development and the significance of planning and development of landscaping has become a topic of urgent concern. This paper will take Shanghai and Nanjing, two cities of similar size and distance, as the basis for a comparative study of the ecological benefits and economic value of landscaping, and analyze and give suggestions for the future development of landscaping in the context of sustainable development. It is found that the ecological and economic benefits of landscaping in the two cities are significantly different under different planning policies. The ecological and economic advantages of Nanjing's landscaping are more noticeable than those of Shanghai, and an analysis of its landscaping practices is important for directing the future development of urban landscaping.
