This session will feature presentations on design and architecture of urban environment and ecosystems that support quality of life. The topic is dominated, in the case of buildings, by energy and water use footprints, but design of urban environment and ecosystems depends on other issues such as demographics, congestion, transportation, waste handling, and nutrient flows.
