With ever increasing trends in urban consumption and production
practices, a call for action to mitigate Climate Change is often
seen as a way to foster sustainable development. Considerable
attention is now being paid to determine what urban sustainability
would include. Today there is a pressing need to broaden our
knowledge and apply new concepts and frameworks to development of
modern cities. Building on the foregoing, this book attempts to
bring together and discuss concepts, tools, frameworks and best
practices to cope with the emerging challenges faced by cities
today. The book will be of use to policy makers, city planners,
practitioners and academics who are starting to project what modern
cities would need to do in terms of energy efficiency, mobility,
planning and design of habitat and infrastructure and adapting to
climate change.
