Curran & Hamilton (2012) propose a “just-green-enough” approach to establish green infrastructure while minimising the negative effects of green gentrification. The idea is that the marginal improvements in life quality as a result of green/blue space upgrades are limited beyond a certain degree of green space enhancement. This means that investments in larger green spaces tend to have limited advantages in terms of subjective well-being, while increasing real estate prices. By making an area “just green enough”, social as well as ecological objectives can be obtained without necessarily increasing housing prices significantly.
