The health of our planet and ourselves depends on how we plan, design, and construct the world between our buildings. Green Community brings together diverse experts, each of whom has a unique approach to sustainable planning, design, politics, and construction.
The health of our planet and ourselves depends on how we plan, design, and construct the world between our buildings. Our increasing dependence on fossil fuels over the last century has given us unprecedented individual mobility and comfort, but the consequences are clear. Climate change, sprawl, and reliance on foreign oil are just a few of the challenges we face in designing new-and adapting existing-communities to be greener. Based on the National Building Museum''s Green Community exhibition, this book is a collection of thought-provoking essays that illuminate the connections among personal health, community health, and our planet''s health. Green Community brings together diverse experts, each of whom has a unique approach to sustainable planning, design, politics, and construction.
