Strategies for Sustainability: Integrating Landscape and Architecture to make cities delightful. The more livable our cities, the more sustainable they can be.
1. Conserve Energy
1. Cities: Reduce automobile use, Build compact cities, Public transit, pedestrian environment
2. Buildings : Insulation, orientation, passive and active solar energy. Daylighting. Shading, Sustainable sources of materials
2. Reduce Heat Island effect
1. Bring landscape into city for shade, air quality and delight. Plant trees for shade, green roofs, green corridors, reduce paving
3. No Waste
1. Recycle.
2. Don’t use poisons or unrecyclable materials. Find alternatives to polluting substances.
4. Conserve Water
1. Return rainwater to ground (permeable paving). Native landscaping requires less irrigation. Reuse gray water. Treat sewage to high degree.
5. Conserve Wildlife
1. Protect wildlife habitat. Habitat corridors through city. Design habitats for native wildlife (parks for animals and people)
Native trees of South Florida support diverse wildlife. Trees are the foundation of terrestrial ecosystem
Live Oak, Florida
Pond Apple, Florida
Wildlife corridors bring native ecosystem into city.

Strategies for Sustainability: Integrating Landscape and Architecture to make cities delightful. The more livable our cities, the more sustainable they can be.
1. Conserve Energy1. Cities: Reduce automobile use, Build compact, mixed use cities with
transit and rich pedestrian environment
2. Buildings : Insulation, orientation, passive and active solar energy. Daylighting. Shading, Sustainable sources of materials
2. Reduce Heat Island effect
1. Bring landscape into city for shade, air quality and delight. Plant trees for shade, green roofs, green corridors, reduce paving
3. No Waste1. Recycle. 2. Don’t use poisons or unrecyclable materials. Find alternatives to polluting
substances.
4. Conserve Water1. Return rainwater to ground (permeable paving). Native landscaping
requires less irrigation. Reuse gray water. Treat sewage to high degree.
5. Conserve Wildlife1. Protect wildlife habitat. Habitat corridors through city. Design habitats for
native wildlife (parks for animals and people)

Urban Heat Island
Hotter in city because of pavement and buildings that absorb heat during day and re-radiate it at night.

Intersection of US1 and the Snapper Creek Expressway in South Miami
Here are immediate opportunities in this most unhospitable carscape
Blue = Rooftop available for solar panels or green roof
Light Green= grass area available for wildlife habitat: native shrub planting
Dark Green= parking areas available for shade trees in strips of permeable paving
We can do it if we try
