Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. This book explores the concept of nature-based solutions (NbS) as a sustainable approach to tackle the environmental challenges in urban and peri-urban areas such as biodiversity loss and urbanization in the changing climate. The book highlights the myriad benefits of NbS, including enhancing resilience, mitigating urban heat island effect, promoting biodiversity, and improving air and water quality. Drawing on real-world case studies from different global contexts, the book provides practical examples of successful NbS implementation in various urban and peri-urban settings.Through an interdisciplinary lens, the book discusses the science, policy, and governance aspects of NbS, emphasizing the need for collaboration among stakeholders, policymakers, and communities to effectively implement the solutions. It will also explore the economic benefits of NbS and how they can contribute to the well-being and social equity of urban populations. The book serves as an essential guide for policymakers, researchers, and practitioners seeking sustainable and nature-centric approaches to address the environmental challenges that cities and peri-urban areas face in the twenty-first century.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This anthology, Urban Planning and Design for Megacities in the Global South: Smart and Sustainable Development, sheds light on the intricate dynamics of megacity growth in the Global South. It has compiled a rich and diverse array of evidence-based case studies, fostering discussions on emerging issues, strategies, and solutions for the enhanced planning and development of megacities in the Global South. By delving into the underlying factors propelling this rapid urban expansion, such as economic opportunities, rural-to-urban migration, and natural population growth, this volume analyzes the complex interplay of socio-economic, environmental, and political forces shaping city-regional landscapes. Examining the growth of megacities offers invaluable insights into the challenges and opportunities associated with urbanization in the 21st century. Furthermore, some cities that have not yet achieved megacity status have also been included in this book to provide a comprehensive understanding of urban growth dynamics and the related factors influencing this growth. By studying these rapidly expanding cities, their challenges in urban planning and policy implementation can be identified. These challenges often include inadequate infrastructure, insufficient public services, environmental degradation, and socio-economic disparities. In response, using case studies, the book presents conceptual and empirical strategies to tackle the various problems faced by megacities of the Global South.…

Hardback. Condizione: New. Coastal cities and regions in the global south are some of the most vulnerable regions susceptible to climate change impacts. They experience escalating risks from sea-level rise, extreme weather patterns, ecosystem loss and degradation, along with sporadic urbanization. These regions range from small cities to metropolitan areas and peri-urban settlements. The climate impacts are critical to livelihood aspects, the stability of the ecosystem and the economy of the locality. However, they are often ignored in the mainstream urban environmental planning domain.Climate Adaptation in Coastal Ecosystems: Interdisciplinary Conceptualizations and Approaches from the Global South offers a group of scientific interdisciplinary chapters compiled together. The volume brings together perspectives from urban and regional planning, architecture, environmental studies, disaster management, public policy, and social sciences to explore how climate risks are reshaping coastal urban systems, governance structures, and development trajectories affecting the communities at large. The book is divided into four thematic sections: namely, marginalized communities, heritage and tourism, governance strategies, and governance policies. The compilation presents empirically grounded case studies mostly from the global south. It analyzes several themes ranging from gendered vulnerability, livelihood management, ecosystem-based planning, climate risks, economic development and institutional and governance reforms, in response to the changing climate.The book will be of interest to scholars, researchers, policymakers, and practitioners engaged in urban studies, regional planning, and climate adaptation in coastal contexts. …
