This book presents state-of-the-art research and case studies on new approaches to the design, construction and planning of our cities.

Compelling research findings are explained in the context of practical implementation, enhanced by case studies from industry leaders in order to create a pragmatic reference across policy areas where environmentally aware decision making is required.
