Climate change is changing the context of spatial planning and
shaping its priorities. It has strengthened its environmental
dimension and has become a new rationale for coordinating actions
and integrating different policy priorities. This book sets out the
economic, social and environmental challenges that climate change
raises for urban and regional planners and explores current and
potential responses. These are set within the context of recent
research and scholarly works on the role of spatial planning in
combating climate change. Addressing both mitigation measures for
reducing greenhouse gas emissions and adaptation to the effects of
climate change, the book provides an overview of emerging practice,
with analysis of the drivers of policy change and practical
implementation of measures. It scopes planning issues and
opportunities at different spatial scales, drawing on both the UK
and international experiences and highlighting the need to link
global and local responses to shared risks and opportunities.
