Urban sustainability refers to the practices and studies aimed at promoting the long-term viability of cities by reducing consumption, waste, and harmful impacts on people and the environment. This concept encompasses various factors, including physical, ecological, economic, social, health, and equity considerations. As a key component of urban planning and design, urban sustainability draws on disciplines like landscape architecture, architecture, and civil and environmental engineering.
