Designing for planetary boundary cities

The planetary boundaries signify the Earth’s capacity to tolerate change and set out the science-based limits that must not be surpassed if the Earth is to remain hospitable for future generations.

It sets out 20 regenerative actions to help us achieve sustainable development within these limits, whilst restoring natural systems.
