Abstract

In this article, emphasis is placed on Environmental Planning and prevention of water flood disasters because of problems arising from the application of Directive 2000/60/EU. Thus, a study and a review are conducted, both on the way in which the climate (water) acts upon the space, aiding significantly in the methodology of partitioning, and the relationship between the environment of streams or torrents and its factors and human activities. The question posed is the following: How and with which methods can be achieved the best environmental connection and use of torrents on Environmental planning, when it is well known that torrents in Greece are greater in number and cover a greater area than rivers? Towards the end, various viewpoints of other researchers are presented, which methodologically lead the present article to a new method of approach, deriving both from the way in which the question of water is dealt with, with respect to prevention of water flood disasters, together with human structures for Environmental Planning, and from examining the merits of many applied examples. Keywords: Environmental Planning, influence of rivers and torrents, valorization for prevention of water flood disasters. 1 Introduction In this article is given accent in the Environmental Planning and in the avery of natural destructions, on the occasion the emerging problems of application of Directive 2000/60/EU, up to date because the discrimination-divide of space,
