Sustainability, Housing and the Bioclimate
Keywords:
Vivienda, sostenibilidad urbanaAbstract
For the authors, climatic change and the ever widening ecological hoof-print are both to a great extent the
upshot of mindless urban growth. Buildings are only beaten by private transport and contaminating
industries as the principal cause of that urban un-sustainability that grew ever the graver during the
“building bubble”. No policy is here thought worthwhile unless it be accompanied by such a major political,
economic, cultural and social change as would put a stop to our immoderate laying waste of our scant
resources.
Any valid idea of sustainability thus calls for the overthrowing of market arguing in favour of the sane
demands of reason and ethics. As to housing, a call is made for the use of renewable energy sources, a cutting
back on the use of both energy and water along with a curbing of the production of waste, this coupled with
a proper respect for the environment and outlay for research and development of those studies aimed at
broadening our bio-climatic know-how.
Globalization is here seen to be destroying our planet, reinforcing un-sustainability and destroying cultures.
Global disaster has not yet set in given that the level of consumption of the vast majority is but yet a joke.
For the authors .it is high time that talk of Development as the ultimate goal be set aside as, for them, the
only alternative left for not doing so would be to seek out another planet where mankind could, yet again,
set about destroying this new habitat.
