解説

Sustainable and Resilient Cities: Insights into Urban Planning in US Cities and Communities offers an in-depth analysis of sustainability, climate change and resilience planning across 200 US population centers. Drawing on an analysis of over 600 urban plans, the book evaluates the progress and effectiveness of sustainable urban planning practices in the US, and provides actionable policy recommendations to enhance urban sustainability and resilience in the face of climate change.

Coverage includes:

  • the extent to which US cities design and implement strategies to become more sustainable
  • whether these plans include criteria and indicators to measure progress
  • how closely these plans follow established guidelines like ISO standards
  • the relationship between a city's climate, proximity to water, population size, and the elements included in their sustainability plans
  • an overall preparedness score to assess how well cities and communities are equipped to face current sustainability, climate change, and resilience challenge
  • broader conclusions, including common characteristics and performance patterns of the 200 population centers, and policy recommendations to enhance urban sustainability and resilience.

Sustainable and Resilient Cities addresses the rapidly growing academic and professional interest in urban sustainability, resilience and climate adaptation. With insights spanning multiple fields, it is an essential resource for researchers, practitioners and policymakers.
