Urban Planning and the Environment
For the last twenty five years, America has built-up the suburbs. But now Americans are beginning to rethink whether these communities are environmentally sustainable. Joining The Takeaway is James Howard Kunstler, one of the urban thinkers gathering in Denver this week for the Congress for New Urbanism. He’s the author of “The Long Emergency: Surviving the Converging Catastrophes of the 21st Century.”
