Sostenibilità
La sostenibilità deve diventare il principio guida dell’azione sociale e dell’attività economica. Allo stesso tempo, le sue modalità e i suoi mezzi sono tutt’altro che chiari. In quanto prassi olistica, la sostenibilità deve combinare strategie tecniche e materiali, nonché sociali, economiche, ecologiche ed anche etiche, che hanno molteplici e complesse interazioni e troppo spesso anche obiettivi e priorità contrastanti. In nessun altro campo questi problemi possono essere osservati, affrontati e influenzati meglio che nell’architettura e nell’edilizia.
Ciascun paragrafo di questo volume (costruire meglio – meno – differente) descrive nel dettaglio due aree fondamentali della sostenibilità ed esplora le loro specifiche dinamiche e interazioni. Dopo panoramiche introduttive, metodi innovativi e sviluppi attuali vengono descritti e analizzati in saggi approfonditi, casi di studio internazionali e commenti mirati.
