Understanding
the challenges
of environmental
change
The built environment
must support people and
their productive activities.
This requires an integral
understanding of the future
pressures that will face our
societies, and, of these,
the most challenging is
environmental change. In
order to design spaces and
structures that support future
productive, resilient and
adaptive communities, I need
a detailed understanding of
environmental change.
