Abstract
The Grey Infrastructure is a result of engineering design in the Anthropocene. Globalized culture created systems destroying our relationship with Nature. Trade off sustainability is not enough for ecological crisis solutions, even if the invisible infrastructure of Industry 4.0 will replace Grey Infrastructure of old industry. Autistic Metaverse pushes humankind to digital words offering fake nature conversions - hypernature. IT landscapes are influential for human behaviors - different for demographic groups. Industry 4.0 becomes the Next Nature, attractive for the youngest generations - digital natives infected with the Nature-deficit Disorder. To evolve Sustainable Infrastructure by design “Human-Nature” systems reintegration and transformation from pathogenic to salutogenic are needed. Intelligent Green-Blue Infrastructure will enlarge bio-productive lands, to sustain biodiversity, to inforce regenerative abilities of coexisting ecosystems. The transgression from Industry 4.0 to Nature 4.0 is a long - term evolution focused on members of Society 5.0 vitality and regenerative ability.

According to Smart, E.J., Cascio, J., Paffendorf, J.: Metaverse Roadmap Overview, (2007) the Metaverse is defined as the convergence of (1) virtually enhanced physical reality and (2) physically persistent virtual space. It is a fusion of both, while allowing users to experience it as either.
