The Agile City
Angebote / Angebote:
In a very short time America has realized that global warming poses real challenges to the nation's future. "The Agile City" engages the fundamental question: what to do about it? Journalist and urban analyst James S. Russell argues that we'll more quickly slow global-warming-and blunt its effects-by retrofitting cities, suburbs, and towns.
"The Agile City" shows that change undertaken at the building and community level can reach carbon-reduction goals rapidly. Russell highlights tactics that create multiplier effects, which means that ecologically driven change can shore-up economic opportunity, can make more productive workplaces, and can help revive neglected communities. Being able to look at multiple effects and multiple benefits of political choices and private investments is essential to assuring wealth and well-being in the future. Green, Russell writes, grows the future.
