- Abstract:
This article discusses the environmental impacts of urbanization. The unsustainable character of urban design in the U.S. is framed in terms of the increasing cost of energy used in automotive transportation. The importance of considering urban issues relating to the reuse of resources, access to public transportation, and reductions in energy consumption are noted.
