  1. Water, Green and Health Fate of Nature 7s640-7PubEng: J.E.M.H. van Bronswijk

  2. Urban Planning and Health • Subsurface Safety • Soil attributed Risks • Biotic Risks • Water Risks & Safety • (Public) Transport • Plan only health-supportive buildings • Social Security • Societal Coherence • Towards a new Governance 7s640-7PubEng: J.E.M.H. van Bronswijk

  3. Little Natural Variation in NL • Only 3º Latitude and 4° Longitude • 50°45´ North; 3°21’-7°13’ East • Almost no diversity in altitude • 6.7 m (Prins Alexanderpolder) to 321 m (Vaals) • Mean Summer Temperature: 1°C variation • 16°C near the coast, 17° inland • Mean Winter Temperature: 1°C variation • 3°C near the coast, 2° inland • 3 Soil Types in 2(3) variants • Sand (+/- Lyme; +/- Salt), Clay/Loam, Peat/Bog Dutch Nature comes from the farmer, hunter, beekeeper, peat digger and the impolder crew ! 7s640-7PubEng: J.E.M.H. van Bronswijk

  9. Soil Infiltration of Collected Rainfall • Disappearance of oligotroph sand & peat soil • Replenish Ground Water for Potable Water Production • Spreading of marsh-related diseases • Re-introduction of temperate-climate malaria • Increase of drowning Risk 7s640-7PubEng: J.E.M.H. van Bronswijk
