Though output in cities is responsible for the majority of global carbon emissions, a groundswell of local initiatives has placed local government on the front lines of environmental management. Cities in many ways are bellwethers and testing grounds for emerging trends in climate solutions. In light of these developments, during the 2008 OECD Roundtable of

  • Mark Mandelbaum and Barry Fenton Lanterra 20 Year Retrospective Murano
    It has been twenty years since Barry and I founded Lanterra Developments. It has been an interesting and exhilarating couple of decades as we have grown from a business with a single employee to a full service integrated real estate development company with over 130 employees. As one of the most renowned brands in the GTA real estate market, we have developed over 16,000 homes and built some of the most iconic, well known and award winning condominium projects in Toronto. Lanterra started during a period when condominium living in downtown Toronto was in its infancy. Both Barry and I had been previously engaged for years in a range of real estate development activities, mostly in the Toronto area municipalities. We both shared a vision which foresaw a dramatic paradigm shift in the City’s new home construction industry. As development patterns shifted homes further and further from Toronto’s downtown core and accordingly became more and more expensive, we both anticipated a new era in Toronto, focused on downtown living at its best. Lanterra’s corporate mission is to secure and develop high rise residential projects in the best transit friendly locations with great architecture, interior design, amenities and services. We are proud of what we have accomplished. On the occasion of our twentieth anniversary, we are pleased to present a pictorial archive documenting our journey from our very first project at WaterParkCity to the stellar 2019 lineup including 50 Scollard, Notting Hill, Spirits and Glenhill. We use this opportunity to salute our valued partners who have contributed so much to Lanterra’s achievements, our various valued corporate partners, the banks who have confidently financed these projects and the architects, consultants, marketing and real estate sales companies and brokerage firms who share in our success.

  • Plan De Acción Insular Para La Sostenibilidad Energética
    ACTION PLAN FOR SUSTAINABLE ENERGY ISLAND GRAN CANARIA ISLAND (2012-2020) April 2012 ACTION PLAN FOR SUSTAINABLE ENERGY ISLAND Gran Canaria Island Executive summary European islands with fragile ecosystems and weak local economies suffer an extra pressure of island ecosystems, transportation systems, energy systems and water needs due to the activities related to tourism. The island authorities have realized the need for joining the common efforts in the global strategy of fighting against climate change and European initiatives to reduce CO2 emissions. Under the European directive to achieve the objective of 20-20-20 in 2020, the "Isle PACT: Pact of Islands project" is an initiative of a consortium of European islands that have committed to reduce CO2 emissions in order to meet EU objectives. The Canary archipelago has a high economic vulnerability due to the almost exclusive dependence on fossil primary energy sources and its high exposure to volatility of oil market. Facing this reality, over the past two decades the Regional Government has developed the regional energy plans in order to define the actions that aim at sustainable development of the sector and ensure future energy supply. Canary Islands have some unique peculiarities, reflected in various documents of agreement, both the state wide and European of Outermost Region. The singularities in the energy sector are also recognized. The remoteness of the continent and the fragmentation of the territory configurate the independent island power systems with small and weak grids that suppose an important technical restriction to maximization of Renewable Energy sources (RES) penetration, by its variable and intermittent nature.

Those that took place between 2009 and 2017 in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, their quantitative dimension and their intra-urban distribution are analysed in this study. This perspective allows an appreciation of their relationship with the unequal distribution of income and alien status, factors leading the investigations on the loss of property. In order to achieve this objective, the records of the Common Service of Notifications and Seizures have been used together with data of the Inland Revenue Ministry and Municipal Register, combining statistical and cartographical analysis with the purpose of finding associations Received: 07.06.2020 Accepted: 23.08.2020 Published: 19.11.2020 Published under the terms and conditions of an Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International license. and predictive factors. The study reveals that there is a great concentration of real estate deprivation in the central areas of the city and that the standards of distribution of dispossession are inversely related to the level of income of the urban districts and directly related to the foreign population.

Belangrijkste (eerste) bron voor het verkennend onderzoek was uiteraard Een geruisloze doorbraak. De ge- schiedenis van architectuur en stedebouw tijdens de bezetting en wederopbouw van Nederland (1995) onder redactie van Koos Bosma en Cor Wagenaar. Tijdens het verkennend onderzoek door stagiaire Suzanne de Laat bleek dat diverse archieven niet bij elkaar aansloten, met betrekking tot oorlogsschade slecht ontsloten waren, verschillende cijfers hanteerden en niet altijd eenduidig waren.

Aardkundige eenheden, bodemtypen, watersysteem en landbouw Abiotische factoren zoals bodem en water zijn in belangrijke mate bepalend voor de ontwikkelingsmogelijkheden van natuur en landschap. Deze abiotische factoren worden voor een groot deel bepaald door de geomorfologie. In de onderstaande tekst worden in het kort de belangrijkste factoren beschreven. In paragraaf 3.3 zijn de voornaamste landbouwkundige bedrijfstakken beschreven. 1.1. Aardkundige eenheden en bodemtypen Een landschap is opgedeeld in zogenaamde aardkundige eenheden, waarbij iedere aardkundige eenheid zich kenmerkt door een unieke ontstaansgeschiedenis en specifieke bodemkundige kenmerken. Dekzandrug en dekzandvlakte In het plangebied liggen diverse dekzandruggen die lopen van zuid naar noord of van zuidwest naar noordoost. Vooral de zuidwest naar noordoost gerichte dekzandruggen verstopte de van zuid naar noord lopende beken. In een later stadium hebben de beken de dekzandruggen weer doorsneden. De dekzandruggen bestonden omstreeks 1900 grotendeels uit heidevelden en vennen met hier en daar stuifzand en bos. Dekzandruggen kenmerken zich door (zeer) droge, voedselarme en kalkarme of -loze zandbodems. In uitgestoven laagten komen leem- en oerlagen voor die meestal gevuld zijn met voedselarm en zuur regenwater, al dan niet aangevuld met lokaal grondwater.

  • Ensenadas Y Puertos De Gran Canaria
    G E O G R A F Í A 68 ENSENADAS Y PUERTOS DE GRAN CANARIA ENSENADAS Y PUERTOS DE GRAN CANARIA P O R ALFREDO MEDEROS MARTÍN y GABRIEL ESCRIBANO COBO RESUMEN En Gran Canaria, durante el período precedente a la conquista, el puer- to de Gando fue el punto habitual de desembarco. Simultáneamente, el puerto de Sardina, por su cercanía a la antigua capital aborigen de Gáldar, ocupó una segunda posición hasta inicios del siglo XVI. Durante la primera mitad del siglo XVI, la producción de azúcar dio protagonismo a los puertos de Agaete, Sardina y Melenara, pero con la progresiva crisis del azúcar canario por la competencia americana, duran- te la segunda mitad del siglo XVI, sólo se mantuvo el puerto de Melenara, por su proximidad a la ciudad de Telde. A partir del siglo XVII el comercio fue centralizado en el puerto de la Isleta de Las Palmas, mientras varios puertos locales intervinieron en el comercio interinsular, como Melenara, Gando, Juan Grande, Arguineguín, La Aldea, Agaete y Juncal, situación que no experimentó cambios hasta finales del siglo XIX. Desde la creación del gran puerto-refugio de la Luz en 1883, el tráfico maritimo se ha concentrado en su práctica totalidad alrededor de Las Palmas. Palabras clave: Islas Canarias. Gran Canaria. Puertos. Arqueología Subacuática. ABSTRACT In Gran Canaria, during the period prior to the conquest, the port of Gando was the customary disembarkation point. Simultaneously, the port Núm. 48 (2002) 365 2 ALFREDO MEDEROS MARTÍN Y GABRIEL ESCRIBANO COBO of Sardine, by its nearness to the ancient aboriginal capital of Gáldar, occupied a second position until beginnings of the 16th century.
