Environmental amenities

English term or phrase: Environmental amenities
Hello,

I'm translating an abstract of a phd theses. In this case, I'm translating one that talks about the social impact that green spaces and "environmental amenities" have on cities. This is the context:

"This study will qualitatively analyse cases of community mobilisation developed in response to new environmental amenities"

I don't know what these amenities consist of exactly, but I guess that they are spaces such as public parks. Is there any specific term in Spanish for this expression? One option:

"Este estudio analizará qualitativamente casos de mobilización comunitaria que han surgido como respuesta ante nuevas instalaciones verdes recreativas."

Maybe "zonas verdes" could work too. What do you think?
Thank you!

Rita
