Abstract

In the last 10 years, there has been a significant increase in population in the Aurora parish, because of the migration due to the lack of expansion in Guayaquil City, devastating agricultural land and converting them into serial private developments on the one hand, as well as in disorderly human settlements in the cooperative of the same name, the latter being an unplanned development, which ended in almost no vegetation spaces, generating greater environmental pollution, temperature rise and lack of CO2 uptake, translating it to health problems in the population The present work proposes the creation of a master plan of green areas in the cooperative “Nueva Aurora” for the improvement of the urban landscape and enjoy socio-environmental benefits that can be obtained from good planning, This work shows the importance of the relationship between territorial planning and green areas, since its inclusion in the human environment helps to improve his quality of life.
