It therefore represents one of the greatest opportunities for cities to tackle climate change locally, and contribute to ambitious national government targets at the Paris COP21 and beyond. Cities are the drivers of development, growth and investment. But rising consumption and production in cities is causing more than 70 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions, and cities are vulnerable to climate impacts, such as sea level rise, heat waves and drought. If cities continue to develop according to the prevailing 20th century model, it will not be possible to prevent severe climate change. Fortunately, today, a number of leading mayors are forging a path to low carbon development and are already achieving economic growth by investing in sustainable city climate solutions.

Tall Buildings Market Analysis Prepared on behalf of Reading Borough Council y November 2007 Executive Summary The Reading office market is currently experiencing healthy levels of demand from a broad range of occupiers. Letting activity has recovered over that last 18 months, demand for new accommodation is strong and this has helped erode availability levels and encourage rental growth. Although there is limited evidence of take-up of space in tall buildings this has been due to the quality of accommodation available in the existing tall buildings rather than a more profound trend in occupier preference.

  • Cities, Communities and Homes: Is the Urban Future Livable?
    Cities, Communities, Homes Is the Urban Future Livable? AMPS Proceedings Series 10.1 AMPS PROCEEDINGS SERIES 10.1 AMPS, University of Derby 22 – 23 June, 2017 Cities, Communities and Homes: Is the Urban Future Livable? EDITOR: Eleni Tracada SERIES EDITOR: Graham Cairns PRODUCTION EDITOR: Eric An © AMPS AMPS PROCEEDINGS SERIES 10.1. ISSN 2398-9467 INTRODUCTION This publication is the product of the conference Cities, Communities and Homes: Is the Urban Future Livable? held at the University of Derby in 2018. The premise of the conference and this publication is that the forces shaping life in cities are complex. The economies they are based on are multiple. Some are growing exponentially, others are shrinking. Some pride themselves on architectural heritage, others are seeking to build and rebrand. Some are old, some are new. Inevitably their urban fabrics vary. The communities that live in these places reflect these conditions. Some are long-standing, others are new and in-formation. Sometimes they are active, on occasion homogenous. More generally they are diverse. These communities need, and want, a say in their futures. Some are well connected and affluent, others suffer deprivation and social exclusion. A constant in the mist of this complexity is their need to be housed – whether by themselves, the market, or governments. The conference and this subsequent publication seek to explore how the three issues of city development, sense of community and housing need, all combine to make lives in our cities livable – or not. How will our

  • Fire Safety Challenges of 'Green' Buildings and Attributes
    Fire Safety Challenges of ‘Green’ Buildings and Attributes Final Report by: Brian Meacham Meacham Associates Shrewsbury, MA, USA Margaret McNamee Lund University Lund, Sweden October 2020 © 2020 Fire Protection Research Foundation 1 Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02169 | Web: www.nfpa.org/foundation | Email: [email protected] —— Page ii —— Foreword In 2012, the Fire Protection Research Foundation published the report, Fire Safety Challenges of Green Buildings, the objectives of which were to a) systematically document a set of green building design elements that may increase fire safety hazards, and, b) share best practices identified via the search with respect to fire hazard risk mitigation associated with green building design elements. This effort identified more some 80 ‘green’ building features and technologies, identified a set of 22 potential sources of increased hazard or risk associated with the ‘green’ features and technologies, identified several fire and other safety events associated with the ‘green’ features and technologies, and presented a relative risk matrix as a qualitative representation of the ‘additional’ hazard or risk presented by ‘green’ buildings and features. In the six and a half years since the project report was published, there have been several major fire events, which involved ‘green’ building features or technologies, notably the Grenfell Tower fire in London (combustible insulation), the Dietz & Watson cold storage warehouse in Delanco, New Jersey (photovoltaic panels, combustible insulation), and a spate of fires in buildings under construction using lightweight timber framing. While each of these can be categorized in many ways, they (and many others) include materials, systems, technologies and features that are considered ‘green’ or sustainable.
