Six Battery Road - Existing Building Going Green 330 $aThe world is facing an age of scarcity which will challenge all cities to reduce their resource footprint, especially carbon, improve biodiversity and at the same time continue to create economic opportunities and liveable places. This is green urbanism. Asian urban growth is leading the world in the rapidity of its change but how is it doing on green urbanism? This book finds emerging innovations and first signs of green urbanism in Asia and suggests they may be the guiding light for the rest of the world. The authors highlight seven archetypal cities exhibiting green urbanism: the renewable 606 $aCity planning$xEnvironmental aspects$zAsia 606 $aGreen movement$zAsia 606 $aUrban ecology (Sociology)$zAsia 615 0$aCity planning$xEnvironmental aspects 615 0$aGreen movement 615 0$aUrban ecology (Sociology) 676 $a307.1/216095 676 $a307.1216095 676 $a307.76 700 $aNewman$b Peter$f1945-$0309964 701 $aMatan$b Anne$01608693 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910810654903321 996 $aGreen urbanism in Asia$94061040 997 $aUNINA
