Handbook of Biophilic City Planning & Design
ISBN: 9781610916202 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. What if, even in the heart of a densely developed city, people could have meaningful encounters with nature? While parks, street trees, and green roofs are increasingly appreciated for their technical services like stormwater reduction, from a biophilic viewpoint, they also facilitate experiences that contribute to better physical and mental health: natural elements in play areas can lessen children's symptoms of ADHD, and adults who exercise in natural spaces can experience greater reductions in anxiety and blood pressure. The Handbook of Biophilic City Planning & Design offers...

Green Urbanism: Learning from European Cities
ISBN: 9781559636827 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 512 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. As the need to confront unplanned growth increases, planners, policymakers, and citizens are scrambling for practical tools and examples of successful and workable approaches. Growth management initiatives are underway in the U.S. at all levels, but many American "success stories" provide only one piece of the puzzle. To find examples of a holistic approach to dealing with sprawl, one must turn to models outside of the United States. In Green Urbanism, Timothy Beatley explains what planners and local officials in the United States can learn from the sustainable city movement in...

Biophilic Cities: Integrating Nature into Urban Design and Planning
ISBN: 9781597267151 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. Tim Beatley has long been a leader in advocating for the "greening" of cities. But too often, he notes, urban greening efforts focus on everything except nature, emphasizing such elements as public transit, renewable energy production, and energy efficient building systems. While these are important aspects of reimagining urban living, they are not enough, says Beatley. We must remember that human beings have an innate need to connect with the natural world (the biophilia hypothesis). And any vision of a sustainable urban future must place its focus squarely on nature, on the presence,...

Ethical Land Use: Principles of Policy and Planning
ISBN: 9780801846991 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. That land is a community is the basic concept of ecology, wrote Aldo Leopold in 1933, but that land is to be loved and respected is an extension of ethics. Since then, every generation has taken up Leopold's search for a land ethic to guide decision-making which would balance economic considerations with concerns for beauty, sustainability and quality-of-life. Should a community preserve or develop the remaining wetlands within its jurisdiction? Should a local government allow low-income housing to be built in an affluent neighbourhood? Does a farmer continue farming despite surrounding...

Habitat Conservation Planning: Endangered Species and Urban Growth
ISBN: 9780292708068 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 246 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. As environmental awareness grows around the world, people are learning that a diversity of species and the habitat to support them is necessary to maintain the ecological health of the earth. At the same time, however, the pressure to develop wildlife habitat for human settlement and economic gain also grows, causing frequent clashes between the forces of development and of conservation. This pioneering study focuses on a new tool for resolving the land-use conflict--the creation of habitat conservation plans (HCPs). Timothy Beatley explores the development and early results of this...

Catastrophic Coastal Storms: Hazard Mitigation and Development Management
ISBN: 9780822308553 / Angielski / Twarda / 1989 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. As people cluster on the coast in increasing numbers, coastal populations become more vulnerable to severe damage from catastrophic coastal storms. The authors contented that current public policy has proved unable to cope with the growing problem, and in response they present a comprehensive analysis of coastal storm hazards, standard policy approaches, and promising new means of managing coastal growth.
"Catastrophic Coastal Storms" offers a solution to the policy problem by proposing a merger of hazard mitigation with development management, basing this on extensive surveys of at-risk...
