Description

This desk-top reference on sustainable development provides essential information for all who need to be up-to-date and familiar with the implications of the legal, fiscal and planning frameworks around the global and local sustainability agenda. It is relevant to a range of organisations and individuals - from national and local authorities, professional bodies, built environment professions, academia, environmental consultancies, non-governmental organisations and others.

Carefully designed to facilitate access for a diverse range of stakeholders and other human beings, it covers international, European, British and local policies in key built environment themes, and develops their inter-relationship to sustainable development.

The Directory addresses each theme in a series of tables which summarise the policy purpose and also provide web-links to view the specific policy documents. The themes covered are: Biodiversity Climate Change Construction Energy Environment Planning Pollution Social Issues Sustainable Development Policy and Practice Transport Urban Development Waste Management Water
