It promotes a cross-disciplinary dialogue and provides a critical perspective to those interested in the search for integrated and systemic solutions for the sustainable future of the built environment and all the living species that inhabit it. The global challenges posed by climate change have led to goals for the built environment that are primarily focused on reducing energy and resource consumption, with the aim of achieving decarbonization in the sector by 2050. However, the growing awareness, not only in the scientific community, of the impact of the construction industry on natural systems, on which it depends, and of the role of the built environment on the well-being and health of people, makes it necessary to define a new framework to align ongoing efforts with greater social and environmental responsibility. The concept of nature-positive thus becomes a new paradigm to go beyond the logic of zero impact and promote the generation of positive impacts for natural ecosystems and human health. The book brings together contributions from experts from different sectors who have researched and experimented with possible strategies to address the main challenges facing urban areas and the construction industry, seeking to give back to natural ecosystems and the human-nature relationship the space that has been lost due to urbanization. The presentation of case studies from Italy and the United States provides concrete examples of nature-positive solutions that at various levels have been proven in cities and are helping to ensure long-term sustainability. 410 0$aResearch for Development,$x2198-7319 606 $aBuilding materials 606 $aEnvironmental management 606 $aUrban policy 606 $aUrban ecology (Biology) 606 $aBiodiversity 606 $aEnergy policy 606 $aEnergy policy 606 $aBuilding Materials 606 $aEnvironmental Management 606 $aUrban Policy 606 $aUrban Ecology 606 $aBiodiversity 606 $aEnergy Policy, Economics and Management 615 0$aBuilding materials. 615 0$aEnvironmental management. 615 0$aUrban policy. 615 0$aUrban ecology (Biology) 615 0$aBiodiversity. 615 0$aEnergy policy. 615 0$aEnergy policy. 615 14$aBuilding Materials. 615 24$aEnvironmental Management. 615 24$aUrban Policy. 615 24$aUrban Ecology. 615 24$aBiodiversity. 615 24$aEnergy Policy, Economics and Management. 676 $a691 700 $aIannaccone$b Giuliana$0769649 701 $aEllis$b Eugenia Victoria$01891794 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911061831403321 996 $aTowards a Nature-Positive Built Environment$94536106 997 $aUNINA
