dc.description | The aim of this book is to present the reader with examples of the latest research into different urban forms and the ways in which they can be designed to be more sustainable. The pursuit of sustainability has been placed on the agenda of governments and non-governmental organizations after the 1972 UN Conference on the Human Environment, and more recently by the World Commission on Environment and Development (1987) and the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio. It has been stated by these, and other, bodies that cities must be economically viable, socially equitable and contribute to environmental protection of all species: adhering to the concept of the Three Pillars of Sustainable Development (United Nations, 2002). | en_US |
