520 _aAs environmental issues become increasingly important in cities, this article documents and examines policies for greening and building green infrastructures in an arid and fast-growing city marked by deep inequalities. Our study, which combines social survey, biogeographic surveys and green network mapping, highlights the contradictions between urban planners’ intentions, inhabitants’ practices and ecological functionalities. The Abu Dhabi example thus proves to be particularly rich for testing this new model of ecological urban planning.
