From the best-selling author of Ecohouse and Adapting Buildings and Cities for Climate Change. This book studies the growing Solar
Cities movement, and demonstrates how issues of planning, rights, wiring and social change have been tackled in cities across the
globe. The history of the movement and ideas for the future are also covered.
The Solar City approach has emerged from a new generation of research and development that seeks citywide applications of
renewable energies and other means of greenhouse gas emissions reductions and absorption that will be applied in a coherent
spatial and social context, as well as within community-wide framework.
