I’m thrilled that my important new book, ‘One Planet’ Cities: Sustaining Humanity within Planetary Limits<\/a>, will be out next May.<\/p>\n

\"Cover<\/a><\/p>\n

It addresses the crucial question of how the essential needs of the growing human population can be met without breaking the Earth’s already-stretched life-support system and is the product of years of research, thinking, and conversations. It builds on the work of Kate Raworth’s Doughnut Economics<\/em> and the Global Footprint Network.<\/p>\n

Rhagwelir bydd pedwar o bob pump person yn byw mewn ardaloedd trefol erbyn 2080, ac mae \u2018One Planet\u2019 Cities <\/a>proposes a pathway to genuine sustainability for cities and neighbourhoods, using an approach based on contraction and convergence.<\/p>\n

Gan ddefnyddio cyfweliadau gyda rhanddeiliaid allweddol, gan gynnwys y Rhwydwaith \u00d4l Troed Byd-eang, World Future Council, WWF, meiri a swyddogion, ac astudiaethau achos ar draws y blaned, gan gynnwys Ewrop, Gogledd a De America, Awstralia, Sweden, De Affrica, Tsieina ac India, mae David Thorpe yn archwilio pob agwedd ar gymdeithas fodern o ddarpariaeth bwyd i ddylunio cymdogaethau, drwy ddiwydiant, yr economi gylchol, ynni a chludiant trwy lens feirniadol yr \u00f4l troed ecolegol a'r safonau a dangosyddion rhyngwladol atodol perthnasol.<\/p>\n

Recommendations on managing supply chains and impacts, how the transition to a world within limits might be financed, and a deep examination of the Welsh Government’s pioneering efforts follow. It concludes with an imagined vision of what a genuinely sustainable future might be like, and an appeal for ‘one planeteers’ everywhere to step up to the challenge.<\/p>\n

This book will be of great interest to practitioners and policymakers involved in governance, administration, urban environments and sustainability, alongside students of the built environment, urban planning, environmental policy and energy.<\/p>\n

I’m delighted that it has a foreword by Herbert Girardet, founder of the World Futures Council.<\/p>\n

From January 2019 I’ll be publishing biweekly extracts to generate momentum for the launch. Watch this space!<\/p>\n
