Description

This report considers climate change as one of six key drivers that will affect quality of life in Europe’s cities in the future. Climate change is considered along with Demographic changes; Consumption and urban lifestyles; Urbanisation; Air pollution and noise and Cohesion policy. The report illustrates how different conceptions of quality of life influence the quality of life of others, and provides ideas for ways to meet the challenges that lie ahead; and by doing so aims to support individuals and politicians to discover a balanced concept for quality of life compatible with sustainable development.
