Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation for Civil Engineers

“Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation for Civil Engineers" robustly demonstrates the imperative role of civil engineers in dealing with climate change global challenges. It equips engineers for the change they want to see, by focusing on the development of energy-efficient, green structures that can respond to the effects of natural disasters related to extreme weather events and sea level rise. Other subjects include, but are not limited to, the use of non–fossil energy sources, the need for a circular economy, and green buildings. In addition, the book emphasizes the necessity of collaborative approaches, compliance with climate rules, and the use of advanced strategies. This way civil engineers will be able to be at the forefront of the development of climate-adaptive and climate-neutral construction.

The topics covered are outlined in Part I and Part II, but are not limited to these sections.
