One Planet CommunitiesOne Planet CommunitiesA reallife guide to sustainable living by Pooran DesaiHow can we create sustainable zero carbon communities costeffectively at the same time as increasing the probability of people leading happy and healthy lives? Written from the perspective of practical experience gained from worldleading projects such as Beddington Zero (Fossil) Energy Development (BedZED), One Brighton and Masdar City, this book provides a clear overview and simple insights for students, interested individuals and professionals in all areas of the property development and planning industries including architecture, planning, engineering, surveying, development management, finance, legal, sales and marketing and estates management. It combines leadingedge thinking with simple practical advice in this fastemerging field.In the often confused realm of sustainable development, the book starts with the question of how to turn sustainability from an abstract concept into a clear framework on which to base practical design, development, longterm management and governance decisions. It describes One Planet Living, the approach which links the science of ecological footprinting to a simple framework of principles, and how the framework is being applied to create a coherent approach to projects in the UK, Europe, China, the US, South Africa, the Middle East and Australia. It also draws on other examples of best practice projects from around the world.
