Sustainability and The City
This past week's Smart City Radio program talked with Sustainable Urbanism author Doug Farr. He notes that urbanism is inherently more sustainable than other settlement patterns. But in order to address the 21st century's demands for more green, efficient, sustainable lifestyles, we are going to need something more than classic urbanism. He argues for more than just green buildings stuck into existing cities, but also a renewed focus on walkability, high performance infrastructure, and other interesting topics.
