Les modes de vie résistent à la durabilité ! Il est ainsi difficile d’agir dans certains domaines pour faire diminuer la consommation énergétique, c’est tout particulièrement le cas de la mobilité et de l’étalement urbain. Derrière cette difficulté à agir se cache une compréhension imparfaite des phénomènes et des leviers qui les sous-tendent. Le présent ouvrage propose un état des lieux des relations entre modes de vie résidentiels et consommation énergétique à partir de travaux de recherche originaux et récents portant sur l’Allemagne, la Belgique, l’Espagne, les Etats-Unis, la France, l’Italie, la Grande-Bretagne, le Japon, la Suisse et la Turquie. Il a pour but d’en tirer les enseignements et d’identifier les moyens d’agir pour réduire la consommation énergétique dans le domaine de l’habitat et de la mobilité.

The city is not only the habitat of people, but also of plants and animals. Building Urban Nature is a call for nature-inclusive, bio-receptive architecture that inspires designers to incorporate nature in their work and encourages initiatives towards a green, biodiverse and healthy city. With examples of realized projects, it shows how nature values can be incorporated into our buildings. The publication discusses the conditions for settlement of fl ora and fauna on and on top of our buildings, as well as the design methods, strategies and techniques that are useful in this regard.Linking ecological theory to the building practice helps designers, architects and ecologists to make architecture nature-inclusive.

Calgary, Alberta is a culturally diverse urban metropolis. Sprawling and car-dependent, fast-growing and affluent, it is dominated by the fossil fuel industry. For 30 years, Calgary has struggled to turn sustainability rhetoric into reality.Sustainability Matters is the story of Calgary’s setbacks and successes on the path toward sustainability. Chronicling two decades of public conversations, political debate, urban policy and planning, and scholarly discovery, it is both a fascinating case study and an accessible introduction to the theory and practice of urban sustainability. A clear-eyed view of the struggles of turning knowledge into action, this book illuminates the places where theory and reality converge and presents an approach to municipal development, planning, and governance that takes seriously the urgent need to address climate change and injustice.Addressing a wide variety of topics and themes, including energy, diversity, economic development, and ecological health, Sustainability Matters is both a critique of current practice and a vision for the future that uses the city of Calgary as a microcosm to address issues faced by cities around the world. This is essential reading not only for every Calgarian working for a vibrant and sustainable future, but for all those interested in in the future of cities in a post-carbon world.
