Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This book explores the concept of nature-based solutions (NbS) as a sustainable approach to tackle the environmental challenges in urban and peri-urban areas such as biodiversity loss and urbanization in the changing climate. The book highlights the myriad benefits of NbS, including enhancing resilience, mitigating urban heat island effect, promoting biodiversity, and improving air and water quality. Drawing on real-world case studies from different global contexts, the book provides practical examples of successful NbS implementation in various urban and peri-urban settings.Through an interdisciplinary lens, the book discusses the science, policy, and governance aspects of NbS, emphasizing the need for collaboration among stakeholders, policymakers, and communities to effectively implement the solutions. It will also explore the economic benefits of NbS and how they can contribute to the well-being and social equity of urban populations. The book serves as an essential guide for policymakers, researchers, and practitioners seeking sustainable and nature-centric approaches to address the environmental challenges that cities and peri-urban areas face in the twenty-first century.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This book delves into the dynamic intersection of urbanization and sustainability in the rapidly evolving cities of the Global South and unravels the complexities and nuances surrounding the environmental transition challenges in the region. The primary objective is to offer a comprehensive understanding of how cities in the Global South are struggling with the intricate task of achieving sustainability amidst rapid urbanization with population growth, economic transformations, and environmental uncertainties such as climate change associated with emerging extreme events. By examining case studies, policy frameworks, and innovative solutions, the book sheds light on the unique circumstances shaping the sustainability discourse in these urban landscapes. The book also provides a roadmap to craft-informed policies and strategies to foster sustainable urban development, addressing pressing issues such as resource management, climate resilience, and social equity. As the cities of the Global South navigate the challenges of the twenty-first century, the "urban sustainability" emerges as a timely and indispensable guide to shape resilient, inclusive, and environmentally conscious cities in the Global South. This book is a valuable resource for academics, policymakers, urban planners, environmentalists, and citizens at large.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This anthology, Urban Planning and Design for Megacities in the Global South: Smart and Sustainable Development, sheds light on the intricate dynamics of megacity growth in the Global South. It has compiled a rich and diverse array of evidence-based case studies, fostering discussions on emerging issues, strategies, and solutions for the enhanced planning and development of megacities in the Global South. By delving into the underlying factors propelling this rapid urban expansion, such as economic opportunities, rural-to-urban migration, and natural population growth, this volume analyzes the complex interplay of socio-economic, environmental, and political forces shaping city-regional landscapes. Examining the growth of megacities offers invaluable insights into the challenges and opportunities associated with urbanization in the 21st century. Furthermore, some cities that have not yet achieved megacity status have also been included in this book to provide a comprehensive understanding of urban growth dynamics and the related factors influencing this growth. By studying these rapidly expanding cities, their challenges in urban planning and policy implementation can be identified. These challenges often include inadequate infrastructure, insufficient public services, environmental degradation, and socio-economic disparities. In response, using case studies, the book presents conceptual and empirical strategies to tackle the various problems faced by megacities of the Global South.
