Sobre este e-book

Self-Sufficient Cities explores the ambitious yet vital concept of transforming urban areas into sustainable ecosystems. It examines the architectural, environmental, and infrastructural changes needed for cities to generate their own resources. For instance, buildings could be designed to harvest rainwater and produce energy, lessening the reliance on external resources. The book also highlights the potential economic and social impacts of transitioning to localized resource systems, recognizing that community engagement is as crucial as technological advancement.

The book progresses through three sections, starting with the historical and environmental context of urban self-sufficiency. It then dives into specific strategies like renewable energy systems and urban agriculture, showcasing real-world examples. Finally, it tackles implementation challenges, including economic and policy considerations, providing a vision for future urban development.

The book uniquely integrates architectural design with broader ecological and social factors, emphasizing the human element in creating sustainable environments.
