Ecosystem Services (ESS) have a high potential to better inform planning decisions about land take. Land take is used throughout this text to indicate the transformation of land from its original state, for settlement and related purposes. This will usually concern land with natural or semi-natural vegetation. Competing terms are land consumption or the German equivalent Flächenverbrauch, which also is perceived as negative framing by many. Areas providing more ESS than others should be spared. However, ESS need to be properly transferred from a scientific concept into practice, including formal legal planning procedures. To optimise the science-practice interface, some concepts need precision. One way forward involves adapting the rural-urban dichotomy to the logic of planning laws. This chapter demonstrates an approach tailor-made for German Regional Land Use Planning, replacing rural and urban with Outer Space and Inner Space respectively. This reasoning informed a study commissioned and co-authored by the Regional Authority FrankfurtRheinMain (outside the ROBUST project but stimulated by it), which presents a specifically adapted list of suggested ESS indicators ready for application.

摘要

Ecosystem Services (ESS) have a high potential to better inform planning decisions about land take. Land take is used throughout this text to indicate the transformation of land from its original state, for settlement and related purposes. This will usually concern land with natural or semi-natural vegetation. Competing terms are land consumption or the German equivalent Flächenverbrauch, which also is perceived as negative framing by many. Areas providing more ESS than others should be spared. However, ESS need to be properly transferred from a scientific concept into practice, including formal legal planning procedures. To optimise the science-practice interface, some concepts need precision. One way forward involves adapting the rural-urban dichotomy to the logic of planning laws. This chapter demonstrates an approach tailor-made for German Regional Land Use Planning, replacing rural and urban with Outer Space and Inner Space respectively. This reasoning informed a study commissioned and co-authored by the Regional Authority FrankfurtRheinMain (outside the ROBUST project but stimulated by it), which presents a specifically adapted list of suggested ESS indicators ready for application.
