Sustainable Stockholm

Sustainable Stockholm provides a historical overview of Stockholms environmental development, and also discusses a number of cross-disciplinary themes presenting the urban sustainability work behind Stockholms unique position, and importantly the question of how well Stockholms practices can be exported and transposed to other places and contexts. By using the case of Stockholm as the pivot of discussions, Sustainable Stockholm investigates the core issues of sustainable urban environmental development and planning, in all their entanglements. The book shows how intersecting fields such as urban planning and architecture, traffic planning, land-use regulation, building, waste management, regional development, water management, infrastructure engineeringtogether and in combinationhave contributed to making Stockholm Europes "greenest" city.
