Abstract
This paper examines the legal fit of the demand for increased green areas and contact with nature following the COVID-19 pandemic. In particular, this issue is examined both in established urban areas and new growth areas and in rural zones or those under special protection. We are facing an evident rejection of the idea of build-ups and an increase in pressure to build in rural and wooded areas. Furthermore, legislation should favour an increase in green spaces in urban areas. This could imply a readjustment of human relationships with other plant and animal species adapted to an anthropic environment.
