Low Carbon Cities - Isocarp Congress Porto
01 May 2009

INTA Isocarp45th Isocarp Congress Porto - 18-22 October 2009

The planning and delivery of low carbon cities is a hugely important topic with massive implications for the future of our planet.  Atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide are some 35% higher than they were before the start of the industrial revolution just over 200 years ago and they continue to rise.  According to the United Nations’ International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC): ‘Warming of the climate system is unequivocal, as is now evident from observations of increases in the global average air and ocean temperatures, widespread melting of snow and ice, and rising global mean sea level’.  There will be a range of effects across all continents of the world, often through extremes of drought or flooding, and many of the world’s major cities face a particular threat from sea level rise.
