Peter Calthorpe - a noted architect, urban designer, author and leader of the New Urbanismmovement and the Congress of the New Urbanism - addresses what many consider the
greatest challenge humanity has ever faced - global climate change.
Calthorpe takes it as a given that climate change is an imminent threat and potential
catastrophe.
Calthorpe provides grim information on the harm we have already done and a sobering
assessment of how difficult it will be to reduce carbon emissions enough to assure the long
term viability of cities.
Calthorpe’s unique contribution to the debate about what to do about climate change is the
role that urbanism can play in reducing global climate change.
For Calthorpe a big contribution to reducing global climate change is better planning of cities
and metropolitan regions - particularly more compact cities with better linkage between land
use and transportation.
While global climate change is likely to be the greatest challenge this generation of urban
planners face, Calthorpe argues that it is also an opportunity - a chance to create far more
livable, equitable, and sustainable communities and lifestyles.
