This book explores how biotechnology can lead to the reimagination
of cities. In a time where the increasing adoption of technology by
cities is leading to unsustainable environmental and economic
concerns, biotechnology has enabled new ways of envisioning data
and energy storage. Zaheer Allam thus revisits the popular concept
of Smart Cities -and its associated Internet of Things (IoT) to
explore how the biological sciences, coupled with technology, can
be applied to cities; and in doing so, create living urban
organisms on an unprecedented scale. This new concept will open up
exciting avenues to providing novel solutions for climate change
mitigation. The book goes on to address various potential concerns
and discusses what regulatory frameworks would be needed to safely
implement such a concept. It will be a useful tool for planners,
policy makers and engineers as well as for researchers with in
interest in the future of our cities.
