This book, Green Cities: Modelling Urban Sustainability, exists to explain how planners, engineers and policymakers actually approach this challenge. Cities are extraordinarily complex systems, layering transport networks, energy infrastructure, buildings, water systems, green space and the daily lives of millions of people into a single interconnected whole. Understanding how a change in one part of this system - a new transit line, a rezoning decision, a heat-wave - ripples through the rest requires the same kind of structured, transparent modelling that underpins sustainability analysis in other domains, adapted specifically to the particular scale, density and complexity of urban life.
