bufferille

Bufferille is a Finnish term that refers to a buffer zone or a green belt. It is a strip of undeveloped land, often containing vegetation, that is maintained between different land uses. Bufferilles are commonly established to separate residential areas from industrial zones, busy roads, or agricultural fields. They can also be used to protect natural resources such as water bodies or forests from the impacts of human development. The primary purpose of a bufferille is to mitigate negative environmental and social effects. These effects can include noise reduction, air pollution control, visual screening, and the prevention of soil erosion. In some cases, bufferilles are legally mandated as part of urban planning and land use regulations. The design and composition of a bufferille can vary widely, from simple grassy areas to more complex landscapes with trees, shrubs, and other plant species. The specific objectives of a bufferille determine its features. For instance, a bufferille designed for noise reduction might incorporate dense tree plantings, while one intended for visual screening might focus on strategically placed shrubs and fencing.
