Designing for Waste Minimization in High-Density Cities: Chi-Sun Poon and Lara Jaillon; Introduction: Waste management and waste minimizationDesigning for waste minimizationCompact living is sustainable living. High-density cities can support closer amenities, encourage reduced trip lengths and the use of public transport and therefore reduce transport energy costs and carbon emissions. High-density planning also helps to control the spread of urban suburbs into open lands, improves efficiency in urban infrastructure and services, and results in environmental improvements that support higher quality of life in cities. Encouraging, even requiring, higher density urban development is a major policy and a central principle of growth management programmes uCity planningEnvironmental aspectsSustainable urban developmentUrban ecology (Sociology)City planningEnvironmental aspects.Sustainable urban development.Urban ecology (Sociology)307.1/216307.1216711.42Ng Edward1881627MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910972037503321Designing high-density cities for social and environmental sustainability4496349UNINA
