Nuove strategie per il piano di gestione del verde di Parchi e Giardini storici alla luce delle mutate condizioni ambientali e di fruizione.

Parks and gardens are essential for the surrounding territory. For this reason, they are assets to protect and manage through scientific, technical and practical knowledge developed over time. They are enjoyed by the public and meet a different anthropogenic pressure than in the past. Usability and conservation needs are not always easily reconcila-ble. It is therefore essential adopting sustainable management plans, on an economic, biological, architectural, and historical-cultural level. An innovative and economically-weighted management strategy of natural sites, especially historic gardens, is required to address and prevent the effects of climate change, promoting respect for the envi-ronment as well. If the concept of cutting-edge and sustainable management were shared between such situations, the information available would provide a further contribution to the adoption of correct choices.
