California is at the cutting edge of this movement, not only because its regulations actively reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but also because its pioneering environmental regulation, market innovation, and Left Coast politics show how to blend the "three Es" of sustainability--environment, economy, and equity. Planning Sustainable Cities and Regions is the first book to explain what this grand experiment tells us about the most just path moving forward for cities and regions across the globe. The book offers chapters about neighbourhoods, the economy, and poverty, using stories from practice to help solve puzzles posed by academic research. Based on the most recent demographic and economic trends, it overturns conventional ideas about how to build more livable places and vibrant economies that offer opportunity to all. This thought-provoking book provides a framework to deal with the new inequities created by the movement for more livable - and expensive - cities, so that our best plans for sustainability are promoting more equitable development as well.This book will appeal to students of urban studies, urban planning and sustainability as well as policymakers, planning practitioners, and sustainability advocates around the world"-- $c Provided by publisher. 520 $a "With an audience of students, policymakers, and planning practitioners in mind, this book challenges and reconstructs three traditional premises of urban planning and policymaking - the ideas of creating diversity, fostering opportunity, and growing places - in light of on-going transformation in the structure of households, government, and the economy. This thought-provoking book advocates updating policies to reflect the transformation of our population, economy, and location preferences so that our best plans for sustainability are no longer misaligned with the toolkit available for implementation"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Guiding neighborhood change in the region -- Growing the regional economy through sustainability -- Addressing poverty, opportunity and accessibility in the region. 650 0 $a Sustainable urban development. 650 0 $a City planning $x Environmental aspects. 650 0 $a Regional planning $x Environmental aspects. 650 0 $a Urban policy $x Environmental aspects. 650 0 $a Urban economics $x Environmental aspects. 650 7 $a BUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Development / Economic Development. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a BUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Development / Sustainable Development. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a BUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Environmental Economics. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Stadtplanung. $0 (DE-588)4056754-0 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Regionalplanung. $0 (DE-588)4049040-3 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Kommunalpolitik. $0 (DE-588)4073648-9 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Nachhaltigkeit. $0 (DE-588)4326464-5 $2 gnd 830 0 $a Routledge, equity, justice, and the sustainable city series. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191213012302.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=96BB094A246D11E5A97E42B6DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
