Cerro","doi":"10.2495/sc220401","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2495/sc220401","url":null,"abstract":"Our agricultural system has a gigantic task ahead, by 2050 it will need to increase food production by about 70% in order to meet the needs of a global population of 9.7 billion people, 68% of whom are projected to live in urban areas. Presently, 38% of the planet’s unfrozen land is used for growing food, using 70% of our water consumption. The agricultural system needs to become more efficient starting by using new technologies to increases productivity. Indoor farming has the potential to present solutions that can help mitigate this problem at both the urban and single dwelling levels. The future of food production starts at home by bringing plants indoors. Interest in greenifying our interiors is not new. As humanity moved from nomadic hunter-gatherers (in the Neolithic) to becoming urban dwellers, plant domestication was one of the main factors behind their settling down. Across cultures all over the world and for generations, humans have brought plants into their homes. Before we called them houseplants, scented and flowering plants were taken indoors so that their fragrance and blooms could be enjoyed, while also masking unwanted smells inside the house. Well known as stress busters, mood enhancers and incorrectly as air purifiers, it’s easy to see why houseplants are having a revival. The present trend has been attributed to eco-friendly, health-conscious millennials who want to bring the great outdoors into their inner-city apartments and nurture something alive in an increasingly virtual world, but it could go further than that. What if indoor houseplants could also feed us? The future of dwelling relies on making home grown produce an inherent aspect of the interior environment, using smart gardening, self-watering garden systems, hydroponic kitchen appliances and other emerging technologies to do so. This paper will focus on the future of indoor plants and their sustainable potential in helping mitigate the climate crisis, as they are integrated in an interior environment to help define the future of dwelling.","PeriodicalId":35178,"journal":{"name":"WIT Transactions on Ecology and the Environment","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42186085","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"REINVENTING THE IMAGE OF CITIES USING THE ELEMENT OF WATER: INTERNATIONAL CASE STUDIES OF WATERFRONT URBAN DEVELOPMENTS","authors":"Rachida Benabbou, Yan Hui, E. Roberts, Jiang Jiang Shao","doi":"10.2495/sc220301","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2495/sc220301","url":null,"abstract":"The relationship between human settlements and water has been complex and multidimensional throughout history. However, the urban history of cities is intrinsically related to their interaction with the element of water. The element of water enables spectacles to occur. People gravitate towards the water’s edge, socio-cultural life improves, new spaces are discovered, and, in turn, the city is reconciled with the waterfront (natural harbour/river) by invigorating the civic realm via the activation of public space(s). The conference paper focuses on exploring four different international urban master-planning projects (Casablanca in Morocco, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region in China, Liverpool in the United Kingdom and Shanghai in China), which utilise the element of water (natural harbour/river) as a means of reinvigorating major district(s) within city centres via the process of reconciliation, and in turn, reinventing the image of the city. The main aim of the research team is to understand the dynamics behind these urban master-plan projects and to highlight the new aspects of the process of re-evaluation/re-invention of the city’s identity and urban character through reconnecting to the water’s edge (natural harbour/river) and regenerating the waterfront. In summary, this paper is an attempt to express the significance of integrating water as a unified natural element and as an essential landscape feature within urban master-planning visions leading to a more sustainable future for our cities globally, as well as to highlight the new urban design aspects of the process of re-evaluation and re-invention of the city’s identity and urban character. The main drive of the paper is that emphasising links to the element of water should be considered a key lead urban design factor within the regeneration of cities internationally.","PeriodicalId":35178,"journal":{"name":"WIT Transactions on Ecology and the Environment","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42430076","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
