The authors provide an overview of current large-scale and urban strategies to counterbalance climate change so far undertaken in different geographical contexts (Europe, United States, China, Africa and Australia), shedding light on the different approaches, on the different weights assigned to mitigation and adaptation issues as well as on the main barriers hindering their effectiveness and translation into measurable outcomes. Opportunities and criticalities arising from the rich, 'sprawled' and 'blurred' landscape of current strategies and initiatives in the face of climate change pave the way to a discussion on the lessons learned from current initiatives and provide new hints for developing integrated climate strategies, capable to guide planners and decision makers towards a climate sensitive urban development. 606 $aCity planning$xEnvironmental aspects 606 $aSustainable development 615 0$aCity planning$xEnvironmental aspects. 615 0$aSustainable development. 676 $a307.1216 700 $aGalderisi$b Adriana$035305 702 $aColucci$b Angela 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910583485003321 996 $aSmart, resilient and transition cities$92160287 997 $aUNINA
