Description
The purpose of this article is to review the literature related to urbanism and climate change. First, an overview
of climate change policies is presented. A review of articles published in recent years that examine the various
research subareas related to urbanism climate change and the present pandemic situation is performed. The
concepts of green and biophilic urbanism have been growing and getting strength, as a holistic concept for tomorrows sustainable urban areas based on the consistent and safe use of energy, soil, water, green spaces,
materials, and mobility. These new trends are based on social needs, with integrated strategies and policies that combine adaptation and mitigation to face urban growth’s negative impact. The review focused on articles
published in the last 20 years with the keywords “urbanism” and “climate change”. This literature review became evident that there is a gap in urban studies about interdisciplinary research. info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion
