Peter Head - Urban Design For The Ecological Age
This document discusses the transition to more sustainable, "connected urban development" models in the "ecological age." It summarizes that as populations grow and resources shrink, cities must become more efficient and integrated to reduce their ecological footprint. The document outlines strategies like high-speed rail, renewable energy, waste recycling, urban agriculture, and smart infrastructure to connect cities while optimizing resources. Integrated master planning is presented as key to coordinating these systems and creating virtuous cycles of value across urban and rural areas.
