| Synopsis: |
Housing Sustainability in Low Carbon Cities addresses the complex dynamics of urban housing futures in an era of rapid social and economic change. In a clear and engaging examination of urban transitions in an age after oil - focusing on housing affordability and sustainability, cities and urban change - this book juxtaposes the novel field of urban decarbonisation with more established, yet quite distinctive, fields of built environment policy and design, housing, and studies of social and economic change.Housing Sustainability in Low Carbon Cities is a strongly reasoned call for greater reflexivity in policy making and program design efforts towards low carbon living, housing and communities. Most significantly, it offers an interdisciplinary approach to integrating measures that address: carbon reduction and climate change concerns, affordability, resilience and renewable energy and resource use, and energy efficiency and equity. Using international case studies, this book will make a unique contribution to interdisciplinary urban studies, discourses and practices in an era of climate change.This book is recommended reading on higher level undergraduates and taught postgraduate courses in architecture, urban studies, planning, built environment, geography and urban studies. |
