Will skyscrapers save the planet? : building height limits and urban greenhouse gas emissions
Borck, Rainald - 2014
This paper studies the effectiveness of building height limits as a policy to limit greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. It … shows that building height limits lead to urban sprawl and higher emissions from commuting. On the other hand, aggregate … total GHG emissions may be lower under building height restrictions, but only when they are very strict. Welfare is not …
