| Abstract | Rapid economic growth and the rise in urban population is generating a wave of construction that is creating new cities and transforming the ones we already have. According to the recent conference in Manila on the management of Asia's cities, the number of megacities in the region will double by the year 2000. This kind of explosive growth is increasingly outstripping the carrying capacity of the ecosystem and threatening the quality of life our cities can provide. The challenge that we face is to minimize the strain that we place on our resources. |
