The impact of overbuilding on people and the planet

This book challenges the status quo where profligate building and urban development is described as 'green' and 'low carbon', exposing a severe impact upon society and the environment. It questions the ethics, equity and sustainability of continued growth of the building stock in industrialized contexts amid diminishing demand, while the developing world is deprived of basic resources and infrastructure.
