In recent years, cities have stepped up efforts to address climate and sustainability crises. But progress has not been fast enough or gone deep enough. If communities are to thrive in the future, we need to quickly imagine and implement an entirely new approach to urban development: one that is centered on equity and rethinks social, political, and economic systems as well as urban designs. With attention to this need for structural change, Reimagining Sustainable Cities advocates for a community-informed model of racially, economically, and socially just cities and regions. Stephen M. Wheeler and Christina D. Rosan ask big-picture questions of interest to readers worldwide: How do we get to carbon neutrality? How do we adapt to a climate-changed world? How can we create affordable, inclusive, and equitable cities? While many books dwell on the analysis of problems, Reimagining Sustainable Cities prioritizes solutions-oriented thinking-surveying historical trends, providing examples of constructive action worldwide, and outlining alternative problem-solving strategies. Wheeler and Rosan use a social ecology lens and draw perspectives from multiple disciplines to rethink urban sustainability for a new era. Positive, readable, and constructive in tone, Reimagining Sustainable Cities identifies actions ranging from urban design to institutional restructuring that can bring about fundamental change and prepare us for the challenges ahead" Stadsplanering https://id.kb.se/term/sao/Stadsplanering sao Urban ecology (Sociology) urban environments Urban ecology (Sociology) City planning Environmental aspects City planning Social aspects City planning Environmental aspects City planning Social aspects �cologie urbaine City planning Rosan, Christina D. aut https://uub.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/openurl/46LIBRIS_UUB/46LIBRIS_UUB:UUB?u.ignore_date_coverage=true&rft.mms_id=991018629447107596 Tillg�nglig f�r anv�ndare inom Uppsala universitet fulltext UUB JSTOR Books {"@id":"h0b499jdfrxdq3jl","modified":"2024-01-24T10:37:55.989+01:00"} librisxl {"@id":"k2d6cdmghm97rdlt","modified":"2024-01-24T10:35:46.913+01:00"} librisxl {"@id":"6q585jm641n9m2ns","modified":"2024-01-31T08:49:07.571+01:00"} librisxl ddc BK-EN 0 8599 8599 0 0 ddc 0 0 CENTRAL TUWAIQ 2026-03-08 0 307.1216 W48 2021 1000000027036 2026-03-08 14:08:25 2026-03-08 BK-EN
