Climate Bridge

An International Perspective on How to Enact Climate Action at the Government Public Interface
Herausgeber: Höfer, Wolfram; Gallagher, Frank; Oberg, Angela; Schlecht, Sebastian; Lindberg, Arianna

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Climate Bridge compares New Jersey and the German Ruhr region to build an international perspective on how to enact climate action at the government-public interface. The book grew from fifteen years of collaboration between scholars in New Jersey and Germany through summer programs, a landscape architecture design studio, internships for Rutgers University students, and joint publications. Notably, settlement patterns and brownfield issues reveal similarities between the underserved in both regions.
