Climax Change! offers an overview of how the current environmental emergency will impact the practice of architecture. At a crossroads in which the construction sector and built environment produce nearly 40% of greenhouse gases accountable for global warming, architects are just starting to acknowledge their complicity in an impending disaster. In need of a paradigm shift similar to that of the Modern Movement, architecture desperately requires clear guidelines and targets so as to operate its inevitable transformation towards an ecologically-friendly design logic. From historical analyses of ecocide or the environmental avant-gardes, to topics such as decarbonization, degrowth, the Great Transition and the aspirations of Green New Deals, this book features ten essays around today's climate change debates, bringing them home to architectural thinking." 650 0 $a Architecture $x Environmental aspects. $x Environmental aspects. 650 0 $a Architecture and climate. 650 0 $a Architecture and energy conservation. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240717031402.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D7EE43D8C19D11EEA89D2B6520ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
