Climate change refers to the long-term changes in weather patterns and temperature. These changes could be caused by natural processes, such as deviations in the solar cycle. Climate change can lead to various wide ranging issues such as high temperature, water and food shortages, increased diseases, economic loss, and increased flooding. Planning for climate change comprises methods for decreasing risks related with disasters, adaptation to current and expected environmental changes, and mitigation strategies for future climate change. This is primarily accomplished by lowering greenhouse gas emissions. Green infrastructure can help cities in adapting to climate change by regulating storm water runoff and minimizing the urban heat island effect. The development of sustainable urban planning is essential for combating climate change. In order to improve performance of built environment, sustainable design aims to reduce adverse effects on the environment, ensuring the comfort and health of the inhabitants. This book provides comprehensive insights on the role of green infrastructure and sustainable design in mitigating climate change. Those in search of information to further their knowledge will be greatly assisted by it.
