Green Spaces in the College of Law
Green Spaces in the College of Law
The College of Law / University of Baghdad has given special attention to green spaces and gardens because of the great importance of these spaces in our lives, whether in the short or long term. This waste represents the lung that purifies this polluted air. Plants consume a large amount of carbon dioxide gas that is harmful to humans and produce pure oxygen necessary for the continuity of life, in addition to the presence of green spaces that contribute effectively to improving the climate and reducing the phenomenon of desertification and the spread of dust and soil throughout the year as a result of the lack of Vegetation, and we should not forget that gardens with their plants and flowers have a great impact on providing psychological comfort, a sense of nature, and enjoying the beauty that the Creator created, which reduces the feeling of psychological stress for the student and sends him energy, hope, and renewal.
There is a group of gardens spread in our college with different microclimates, representing approximately 11% of the total college area, and there is a variety of plants in it, including evergreen trees, shrubs, palms, grass, and seasonal and permanent flowers. There are also places for students to sit to enjoy these gardens.
