Strategies for Sustainability: Integrating Landscape and Architecture to make cities delightful. The more livable our cities, the more sustainable they can be.
1. Conserve Energy
1. Cities: Reduce automobile use, Build compact cities, Public transit, pedestrian environment
2. Buildings : Insulation, orientation, passive and active solar energy. Daylighting. Shading, Sustainable sources of materials
2. Reduce Heat Island effect
1. Bring landscape into city for shade, air quality and delight. Plant trees for shade, green roofs, green corridors, reduce paving
3. Reduce Pollution
1. Recycle. Control sources for pollution, Regulate emissions, find alternatives to polluting substances.
4. Conserve Water
1. Return rainwater to ground (permeable paving). Native landscaping requires less irrigation. Reuse gray water. Treat sewage to high degree.
5. Conserve Wildlife
1. Protect wildlife habitat. Habitat corridors through city. Design habitats for native wildlife (parks for animals and people)
Wildlife corridors bring native ecosystem into city.

Why can’t wildlife corridors climb buildings too?
Strategies for Sustainability: Integrating Landscape and Architecture to make cities delightful. The more livable our cities, the more sustainable they can be.
1. Conserve Energy
1. Cities: Reduce automobile use, Build compact, mixed use cities with transit and rich pedestrian environment
2. Buildings : Insulation, orientation, passive and active solar energy. Daylighting. Shading, Sustainable sources of materials
2. Reduce Heat Island effect
1. Bring landscape into city for shade, air quality and delight. Plant trees for shade, green roofs, green corridors, reduce paving

Urban Heat Island
Hotter in city because of pavement and buildings that absorb heat during day and re-radiate it at night.

Here are immediate opportunities in this most unhospitable carscape
Blue = Rooftop available for solar panels or green roof
Light Green= grass area available for wildlife habitat: native shrub planting
Dark Green= parking areas available for shade trees in strips of permeable paving
