DESCRIPTION:With increasing awareness of the urgent need to respond to global warming 
 by reducing carbon emissions and recognition of the social benefits of 
 car-free and car-lite living, more and more city planners, advocates, and 
 everyday urban dwellers are demanding new ways of building cities. In Low 
 Car(bon) Communities, authors Nicole Foletta and Jason Henderson examine 
 seven case studies in Europe and the United States that aim explicitly to 
 reduce dependency on cars. Innovative and inspirational, these communities 
 provide a rich array of data and metrics for comparison and analysis. This 
 book considers these low car(bon) communities’ potential for 
 transferability to cities around the world, including North America.\n 
 \nAimed at practicing city planners, sustainable transportation advocates, 
 and students in planning, geography, and environmental studies, this book 
 will be an invaluable benchmark for gauging the success of sustainable 
 urban futures.\n\nNicole Foletta has worked in the field of transportation 
 planning for over ten years under a variety of contexts, from public to 
 private sector, with experience in both Europe and the United 
 States.\n\nJason Henderson is Professor in Geography & Environment at SF 
 State and author of Street Fight: The Politics of Mobility in San 
 Francisco, one of The Green Arcade’s all-time bestsellers. His research 
 and teaching include transportation and land use, with an emphasis on how 
 culture and politics shape urban transportation policy.\n\nThis free event 
 kicks off at 7pm.\n
