description: The planning parameters of city planning and landscape architecture are changing as a result of global warming. scape 4 presents the most intelligent and exciting designs, and discusses the various possibilities planners have, for working with the changing climate. Designing without heat and dryness demand new visions; resource scarcity calls for rethinking. Delta regions are the most densely populated areas in the world. Precisely in these regions the water is rising. In the Netherlands a number of studies and initiatives are investigating what solutions are possible and desirable. Arctic cities are no longer remote, whether economically or in terms of culture or climate. What were once extreme situations can be sensibly developed today. The French landscape architect Gilles Clément’s concept of the “jardin planétaire” calls on designers to relate to the earth as a garden. A plea for collective responsibility, poetic and convincing. Die Parameter der Planung in Städtebau und Landschaftsarchitektur ändern sich durch die globale Erwärmung. Clevere Entwürfe müssen den Klimawandel einbeziehen und Wege für den Umgang mit neuen Bedingungen bieten. scape 4 zeigt die spannendsten Entwürfe und diskutiert, welche Möglichkeiten Planer haben, mit dem Wandel umzugehen. Das Konzept des "jardin planétaire" des französischen Landschaftsarchitekten Gilles Clément ruft auf, die Erde zu gestalten wie einen Garten. Ein Plädoyer für die gemeinsame Verantwortung, poetisch und überzeugend.
