Eco-Cities and the Transition to Low Carbon Economies de Federico Caprotti

Eco-Cities and the Transition to Low Carbon Economies

Autor Federico Caprotti
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 3 dec 2014
The author examines the two most advanced eco-city projects: the Sino-Singapore Tianjin Eco-City in China, and Masdar City in Abu Dhabi. These are the most notable attempts at building new eco-cities to both face up to the 'crises' of the modern world and to use the city as an engine for transition to a low-carbon economy.
