This book demonstrates how to make urban environments greener. It starts by explaining how cities can become more efficient and more pleasant to live in, by mimicking nature and deliberately creating habitats to provide ecosystem services. The history of cities and city planning is covered with the impacts of industrial urban development described, as well as the contemporary concerns of biodiversity loss, peak oil and climate change. Technical enough to be valuable to practitioners but still readable and inspirational, this guide demonstrates to town planners, urban designers, architects, engineers and landscape architects how to make cities more liveable.
