It’s a industry/planning term. It covers spaces which has a water (often drainage criteria). Water is too of a broad term as it can also suggest potable water which is about pipe networks. This where it gets fun, lots of new stuff described as blue-green infrastructure which is a growing hybrid field. Like instead of a concrete storm channel, the same system can made via a constructed methods as a naturalised “green” channel so it is essentially a man-made creek. So we would now call this blue-green infrastructure. Then the information in this article would be used as supporting information on why we should build human interaction points on a piece of blue-green infrastructure to make it now a community amenity when previously it would have just have been an infrastructure solution.

Individuals who recalled more childhood blue space experiences tended to place greater intrinsic value on natural settings, visiting them as adults – which increases better mental wellbeing by Wagamaga
