This book analyzes the relationship between urbandevelopment, greenhouse gases and the carbon footprint, and presents the mainpreventive measures that can be implemented at the design stage. Readers areprovided with the knowledge needed to devise a strategy for calculating thecarbon footprint of urban planning instruments, as well as a framework forintegrating sustainability into the planning phase. Highlighting the importanceof preventive and corrective measures, the book includes practical suggestionson how to meet sustainability requirements in urban planning designs, exploringundeveloped land reserves, urban-project design and infrastructure design, andoffers a springboard for further research.

This book analyzes the relationship between large-scale industrial activity and the carbon footprint, and provides a theoretical framework and tools to calculate the carbon footprint of industrial activities at every stage of their life cycles, including urban-planning master plans, recycling activities, project and building stages as well as managing and manufacturing. Discussing the main preventative and corrective measures that can be utilized, it includes case studies, reports on technological developments and examples of successful policies to provide inspiration to readers. This book collects the contributions of authors from four continents, in order to analyze from as many as possible points of view and using many different approaches, the problem of sustainability in today’s globalized world.
