Cities Demanding the Earth

A New Understanding of the Climate Emergency

Beschreibung

The demands that we are making on nature by living in cities has reached a crisis point and unless we make significant changes to address it, the prognosis is terminal consumption. Providing a radical new argument that integrates global understandings of making nature and making cities, the authors move beyond current policies of mitigation and adaption, calling for a reinvention of cities as spaces for activism.
