SUMMARY:Urbanisation and the environment: how industrialised nations can 
 use the law to promote the environment and growth
DESCRIPTION:Increasing urbanisation in developed countries presents a fun
 damental challenge for environmental and urban planning agencies. How ca
 n the desire to seek further economic growth through urbanisation be man
 aged to avoid significant impact on the environment and\, importantly\, 
 promote the health of those who live in areas of increasing urban sprawl
 . Is greater density coupled with innovative infrastructure investment t
 he answer? How can these issues be addressed without an unreasonable imp
 act on housing affordability? Who gets to build where? What are the less
  obvious issues\, such as the impact on health and well being? This pane
 l will explore the various policy and legal solutions that leading citie
 s and nations have put into place in successfully promoting the dual goa
 ls of economic growth through urbanisation and a cleaner\, healthier env
 ironment.
