(Ebook) Model Cities for Resilience: Climate-led Initiatives by Dr. Didem Gunes Yilmaz ISBN 9780000000040, 0000000043

Paris Agreement of December 2015 was the last official initiative led by theUnited Nations (UN) as the driver of climate change mitigation. Climatechange was hence linked with an increase in the occurrence of naturalhazards. A variety of initiatives were consequently adopted under differentthemes such as sustainable cities, climate-friendly development, and low-carbon cities. However, most of the initiatives targeted by global cities withurban areas being the focus in terms of taking action against global warmingissues. This is due to the structural and environmental features of citiescharacterized by being populated, as such, they not only generate a largenumber of carbon emissions but also happens to be the biggest consumer ofnatural resources. In turn, they create a microclimate, which contributes toclimate change. Masdar City, for example, was designed as the first fullysustainable urban area, which replaced fuel-based energy with electric-basedenergy. China, as another example, introduced the Sponge Cities action, amethod of urban water management to mitigate against flooding.Consequently, architects and urban planners are urged to conform to theproposals that would mitigate global warming. This paper, as a result,examines some of the models that have been internationally adopted andthereafter provide recommendations that can be implemented in large urbanareas in Turkey, primarily in Istanbul.
