Implications for Urban Sustainability
Recent developments are considered here in terms of the built environment and ways to ensure steps towards urban resilience through the mitigation of human-derived greenhouse gases (GHGs). Oxford building stone (and its buildings), in the aftermath of the OTS, are considered within a contextual framework of planning, urban design, and transport. Drawing from the broader literature, these topics are discussed from different parts of the world, with an emphasis on developed nations as leaders in climate-change mitigation through low-carbon urbanism.
