PME101 - The Sustainability Matrix

Sustainability is a contested concept informing much of the current conversation about integrating environmental concerns within Canadian economic, social, and urban development. Its place as an idea, ethic and practice however is merely a foundational jumping off point for this subject's core exploration of sustainability's matrix-like, conundrum features. This conversation examines various perspectives of emerging significance including:

  • How urban places are imagined, designed, restored, or built to enhance the quality of life of their residents,
  • The concept of resiliency as the impacts of climate change and urbanization are becoming more prevalent,
  • Ways in which the overall ecological footprint of built and natural features is reduced, and
  • Tools for the development of a robust, regeneration-driven, resilience matrix which adds to ecosystem productivity through net positive development and urban re-appraisal.
     
Solutions are far from fixed, but their ideal realization is related to humanity's obligation for, and its continuing, or future, comfort, within a world of environmental challenges as documented in eco system millennial reports; biodiversity, ocean, and climate change studies; and Planetary Boundary formulations.
