Large cities are less green
We study how urban quality evolves as a result of carbon dioxide emissions as urban agglomerations grow. We employ a bottom-up approach combining two unprecedented microscopic data on population and carbon dioxide emissions in the continental US. We first aggregate settlements that are close to each other into cities using the City Clustering Algorithm (CCA) defining cities beyond the administr...

Planning for sustainable cities is a complex process addressing the fundamental areas of economic, environmental and socially-equitable sustainability. This chapter focuses on the environmental area, with theories, models, and applications illustrating possible spatial configurations of a green infrastructure to support ecological and physical processes in the built environment including: hydro...

Trees in urban settings have vast and documented benefits for city dwellers. We propose that to represent city green the green volume should be taken into account, instead of surface or number of trees. In addition, green volume should be seen in relation to the built “grey” volume to account for dilution or misrepresentation effects. This paper is a first contribution to develop tree-to-buildi...
