商品描述
This book tackles the challenges posed by accelerating urbanization, and demystifies Social Sustainability, the least understood of all the different areas of sustainable development. The volume's twin focus on these profoundly intertwined topics creates a nuanced and vitally important resource. Large migrations from rural areas to cities without appropriate planning and infrastructure improvements, including housing, education and health care optimization, have created significant challenges across the globe. The authors suggest technology-rich strategies to meet these challenges by careful application of data on population growth and movement to the planning, design, and construction of operational infrastructures that can sustainably support our increasingly rapid population growth.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書探討了加速城市化所帶來的挑戰,並揭示了社會可持續性(Social Sustainability),這是所有可持續發展領域中最不為人知的部分。本書雙重聚焦於這些深刻交織的主題,創造出一個細緻且至關重要的資源。由於缺乏適當的規劃和基礎設施改善,包括住房、教育和醫療保健的優化,導致大量人口從農村遷移到城市,這在全球範圍內造成了重大挑戰。作者建議通過仔細應用有關人口增長和流動的數據,來制定富含技術的策略,以應對這些挑戰,並在規劃、設計和建設可持續支持我們日益快速的人口增長的運營基礎設施方面發揮作用。
