Based on a selection of eco-development Chinese case studies - eco-city, eco-community and eco-building - it highlights how specific eco initiatives and green features are applied and practiced, offering a guide to China's strategy directions and design and planning trends. The book identifies gaps and strategies and solutions for future eco-development expected to take place in China in the coming decades, as well as useful references for eco-development in other countries, and provides a useful resource for studies in the fields of urbanism, sustainable development and eco-design.Palgrave Series in Asia and Pacific Studies,2662-7930Sociology, UrbanSustainabilityPhysical geographyUrban SociologySustainabilityPhysical GeographySociology, Urban.Sustainability.Physical geography.Urban Sociology.Sustainability.Physical Geography.307.76Deng Wuauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut982214Cheshmehzangi Aliauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910300590003321Eco-development in China2241662UNINA
