Journal Title: International Journal of Experimental Research and Review - Year 2019, Vol 19, Issue 2
Abstract
Urban green spaces (UGS) supply ecosystem services such as biodiversity, climate regulation and other benefits. Urban green spaces are essential for the quality of life, health, and wellbeing of citizens. Urban green spaces provide a habitat for both flora and fauna. Creating herbal garden(s) or gardens with ornamental plants within the campus is a great way of increasing the green space in a campus. Not only does it help in conserving biodiversity it provides an opportunity to the students to know about their local plant genetic resources. This paper is a based on a pilot project in Gurudas College where faculty and students members of the NSS and Vasudha units increased the green space in the college campus. They created a medicinal garden and also helped in maintaining the ornamental garden.
