Urban Development Shifts Toward Climate Resilience and Sustainability in Asia
As climate change intensifies, urban development in Asia and India is shifting focus from luxury and height to climate resilience and sustainability. Developers and planners prioritize infrastructure that withstands floods, heatwaves, and water shortages, integrating ecosystem restoration and smart energy systems. Reports from the World Economic Forum and Asian Development Bank emphasize combining resilient infrastructure with inclusive growth. Projects like Singapore's Tengah and South Korea's Songdo illustrate this trend toward city-scale environmental planning beyond individual buildings.
