Title: City Region 2020: Integrated Planning for a Sustainable Environment
Description: A report from a research project sponsored by the Town and Country Planning Association. This provides a comprehensive overview of the dimensions of urban sustainable development, covering general approaches to models and specific methods and tools. It constructs a model of sustainable urban development, covering the interrelations of the built environment, travel and transport, land and ecology, waste and pollution, energy and climate, economy and work. It relates all this to a model of the city region, integrated around lifestyle and community, regeneration, funding and markets and governance. Throughout, material from all over the world is assembled, but linked to the the challenges of developing a sustainable city future in Manchester, UK
