The potential impacts of urban agriculture on a range of ecosystem services including soil and water conservation, waste recycling, climate change mitigation, habitat, and food production is only beginning to be recognized. Those impacts are the focus of this book. Growing food in cities can range from a tomato plant on a terrace to a commercial farm on an abandoned industrial site. Understanding the benefits of these activities across scales will help this movement flourish. Food can be grown in community gardens, on roofs, in abandoned industrial sites and next to sidewalks. The volume includes sections on where to grow food and how to integrate agriculture into municipal zoning and legal frameworks. | 出版日期 | Book 2016 | 关键词 | ecosystem education; public health; renewable resources; urban agriculture; Food Production; waste treatm | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-017-7453-6 | isbn_softcover | 978-94-024-1352-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-017-7453-6 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2016 |
