This book provides an engaging and in-depth analysis of possible solutions, providing hope for the future. Broadly speaking these challenges came in three ways: environmental, social, and economic. The challenges posed by climate change demand urgent consideration and response.

Non, répond l'économiste Nicholas Stern, neuf ans après la publication de son premier rapport, qui avait changé la façon de percevoir les relations entre économie et climat. Ce nouveau livre de référence démontre que ce qui est bon pour le climat l'est aussi pour notre économie. Alors que Paris accueille fin 2015 la conférence des Nations unies sur le climat, il présente un plan d'action, véritable feuille de route de la transition des modèles économiques à l'échelle mondiale. Au terme de recherches inédites, une commission composée de nombreux économistes de renom démontre que, du Brésil à la Chine en passant par l'Europe, la transition vers un nouveau monde sorti de sa dépendance au carbone et aux énergies fossiles est non seulement possible, mais également désirable.

Roughly half of the raw materials we extract go into the world’s built environment. Construction creates an estimated one-third of the globe’s overall waste and at least 40 per cent of carbon emissions. These are devastating figures, but they also mean that the construction sector has the power to make a relevant contribution to reversing the climate emergency. In several(...)

Construction creates an estimated one-third of the globe’s overall waste and at least 40 per cent of carbon emissions. These are devastating figures, but they also mean that the construction sector has the power to make a relevant contribution to reversing the climate emergency. In several short essays, this book develops a global perspective on economic, social, and ecological changes in the industry, highlights the experiences of various market players in interviews, presents best practice examples, and dispels the most common prejudices regarding sustainable construction.
