With a foreword from Paul King, Chief Executive, UK Green Building
Council and Chairman, Zero Carbon Hub As concerns over climate
change and resource constraints grow, many cities across the world
are trying to achieve a low carbon transition. Although new zero
carbon buildings are an important part of the story, in existing
cities the transformation of the current building stock and urban
infrastructure must inevitably form the main focus for
transitioning to a low carbon and sustainable future by 2050. Urban
Retrofitting for Sustainability brings together interdisciplinary
research contributions from leading international experts to focus
on key issues such as systems innovation, financing tools,
governance, energy, and water management. The chapters consider not
only the knowledge and technical tools available, but looks forward
to how they can be implemented in real cities by 2050.

HELP YOUR CHILD TO IMPROVE THEIR CATCHING ABILITY- Having good
catching skills can elevate 'Butterfingers' to near superstar
status! This is a simple guide for parents/friends/teachers to
develop practises and strategies that will help young people
develop their catching ability. Short stories about 'catching', and
a little sports psychology and philosophy are also thrown in (and
hopefully caught!) Tim Dixon has more than thirty years experience
as a teacher of Physical Education and a sports coach. He has an
MSc in Sports Sciences, and a 5th Dan Blackbelt in Karate. Tim has
condensed some of the good practice he has experienced into a
practical and sometimes amusing guide. It is a substantial section
of the whole project rather than a stand-alone book, and this is
reflected in the relatively low cost of purchase. It contains a
wealth of knowledge and ideas that will get you thinking and help
you to help others. Further sections are under development for
publishing in the coming months.
