Since China announced the carbon neutrality plan in autumn 2020, no study has looked at the role of city clusters in achieving this long-term plan. Hence, this study is believed to be the first attempt to explore this important topic from the city cluster perspective. It explores the challenges, opportunities, and directions of all 19 city clusters, allowing readers to have a clear picture of China's historical and ongoing progress, as well as the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. In a short time, China's city clusters have helped boost regional economic development, infrastructure development, trade and business, and better urban-rural integration. With enhanced coordination of connection and transport networks in and between the city clusters, we see a growing number of initiatives beyond just the initial economic strategies. The dual approach of top-down policies and infrastructure systems and bottom-up governance and investments has helped China consider urban-rural development strategies and regional sustainable development. These factors are essential to be explored from the city cluster perspective and in line with China's sustainable development and carbon neutrality directions. Hence, the book covers these points holistically, ensuring that regional planning and development are favored in the face of uneven urbanization trends. We anticipate this book to be a valuable resource for local governments and authorities, urban planners and practitioners, developers, and urban researchers. While the focus is on China's city clusters, we believe there are similar examples elsewhere. Hence, lessons learnt from this book could apply to other countries, regions, and subregions. Lastly, the book aims to put regional sustainable development at the heart of longer-term strategies and plans, such as the case of China's carbon neutrality plan. 001451734 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed December 7, 2022). 001451734 650_0 $$aSustainable development$$zChina. 001451734 650_0 $$aCity planning$$xEnvironmental aspects$$zChina. 001451734 650_0 $$aEnvironmental policy$$zChina. 001451734 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001451734 7001_ $$aTang, Tian,$$eauthor. 001451734 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z9811976724$$z9789811976728$$w(OCoLC)1346351436 001451734 830_0 $$aUrban sustainability (Springer (Firm)),$$x2731-6491 001451734 852__ $$bebk 001451734 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-19-7673-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001451734 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1451734$$pGLOBAL_SET 001451734 980__ $$aBIB 001451734 980__ $$aEBOOK 001451734 982__ $$aEbook 001451734 983__ $$aOnline 001451734 994__ $$a92$$bISE
