Eine Plattform für die Wissenschaft: Bauingenieurwesen, Architektur und Urbanistik
By 2040, it is predicted that approximately $60 trillion USD will be spent financing new construction in cities globally (zu Ermgassen et al., One Earth 1:305–315, 2019). The future and present rates of hyper-urbanization can be attributed to rapid population growth. Consequently, the amount of built-infrastructure required to accommodate this growth puts at risk existing natural assets. In response to this unfortunate reality, this chapter explores urban design concepts that enable successful incorporation of existing natural features into development to conserve flora and fauna.
