商品描述
This book explores the concept of a nature-positive built environment highlighting its importance for both human and planetary health. It promotes a cross-disciplinary dialogue and provides a critical perspective to those interested in the search for integrated and systemic solutions for the sustainable future of the built environment and all the living species that inhabit it.
The global challenges posed by climate change have led to goals for the built environment that are primarily focused on reducing energy and resource consumption, with the aim of achieving decarbonization in the sector by 2050. However, the growing awareness, not only in the scientific community, of the impact of the construction industry on natural systems, on which it depends, and of the role of the built environment on the well-being and health of people, makes it necessary to define a new framework to align ongoing efforts with greater social and environmental responsibility. The concept of nature-positive thus becomes a new paradigm to go beyond the logic of zero impact and promote the generation of positive impacts for natural ecosystems and human health.
The book brings together contributions from experts from different sectors who have researched and experimented with possible strategies to address the main challenges facing urban areas and the construction industry, seeking to give back to natural ecosystems and the human-nature relationship the space that has been lost due to urbanization.
The presentation of case studies from Italy and the United States provides concrete examples of nature-positive solutions that at various levels have been proven in cities and are helping to ensure long-term sustainability.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本書探討了自然正向建築環境的概念，強調其對人類和地球健康的重要性。它促進跨學科的對話，並為那些對尋求整合性和系統性解決方案以實現建築環境的可持續未來及其棲息的所有生物物種感興趣的人提供了批判性的視角。
氣候變遷所帶來的全球挑戰使得建築環境的目標主要集中在減少能源和資源消耗，旨在到2050年實現該領域的脫碳。然而，科學界以外的日益增長的認識，關於建築業對其所依賴的自然系統的影響，以及建築環境對人類福祉和健康的作用，使得有必要定義一個新的框架，以使持續的努力與更大的社會和環境責任相一致。因此，自然正向的概念成為一種新的範式，超越零影響的邏輯，促進對自然生態系統和人類健康的正面影響的產生。
本書匯集了來自不同領域的專家的貢獻，他們研究和實驗了應對城市地區和建築業面臨的主要挑戰的可能策略，旨在將因城市化而失去的空間歸還給自然生態系統和人類與自然的關係。
來自意大利和美國的案例研究展示了自然正向解決方案的具體例子，這些解決方案在各個層面上已在城市中得到驗證，並有助於確保長期的可持續性。
作者簡介
Giuliana Iannaccone is a Full Professor of Architectural Engineering at Politecnico di Milano. She holds a degree in Architecture (1998) and a PhD in Architectural Technology (2003) from the University of Naples. She is the Director of Studies of the Master's Degree Program in Building Engineering for Sustainability and is an active member of various academic boards and commissions. Her teaching focuses on construction technology and integrated building design, with a strong emphasis on innovative and international teaching methods, including Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL). Her research centers on energy-efficient and zero-carbon buildings, with a cross-disciplinary approach to decarbonizing the built environment. She also explores futures thinking methods and is involved in technology foresight activities at Politecnico di Milano. She has extensive international collaborations and serves as a visiting professor at universities in the U.S. and China. An author of numerous scientific publications, she has presented at international conferences and evaluated research projects for the European Commission, Swiss National Science Foundation, and Italian Ministry of University and Research.
Eugenia Victoria Ellis is Professor Emerita at Drexel University, USA. A practicing architect who designs energy-conscious buildings shaped by the natural world, Professor Ellis investigates engineering solutions for the built environment at the intersection of light and health. Driven by the prospect of climate change, she researches strategies for the urban environment by considering the city as a responsive urban ecosystem where buildings and infrastructure interact with nature to promote the wellbeing of its citizens. Dr. Ellis' research considers the city as a complex network of interrelated systems that rely on each other to maintain system balance. Her research team has partnered with the Politecnico di Milano to use the comparable cities of Philadelphia and Milan as a testbed to develop prototypical strategies other cities around the globe can use to reduce their carbon footprint and increase human health and wellbeing. Dr. Ellis previously taught at Temple University in 1991 and the University of Idaho 1992-1995. She joined the Drexel faculty in 2000 after twenty years in private practice designing civic and municipal projects, laboratories for high-tech industry, and healthcare/skilled nursing facilities. Her work has been exhibited at numerous galleries and her built projects have been recognized for design by the American Institute of Architects. A principal at BAU Architecture, she designs novel technological buildings that perform like machines to sync the indoor environment with outdoor environmental conditions and reduce energy use. Dr. Ellis has directed Drexel's dLUX light lab since 2012 where students, faculty, and partners from a variety of disciplines investigate light in the built environment and its effect on life and energy use.
