Based on a selection of eco-development Chinese case studies - eco-city, eco-community and eco-building - it highlights how specific eco initiatives and green features are applied and practiced, offering a guide to China's strategy directions and design and planning trends. The book identifies gaps and strategies and solutions for future eco-development expected to take place in China in the coming decades, as well as useful references for eco-development in other countries, and provides a useful resource for studies in the fields of urbanism, sustainable development and eco-design.}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-10-8345-7}, recid = {1358988}, pages = {1 online resource (XVII, 273 pages 21 illustrations) :}, }
