"The key challenge is how to provide incentives for more climate-effective design in the face on complex urban systems."

Great post from The pointy End: (Adaptation: a path to reduced carbon emissions) that asks:

  • What are the characteristics of resilient systems in the built environment?
  • What are the key urban systems at risk due to climate change?
  • Which urban systems are intrinsic to adaptation, but also have mitigation potential?
  • What are the key weak points of current city morphology in terms of climate resilience?

What do you think?
