SUSTAINABLE INFRASTRUCTURE

摘要

It may once have been enough to simply build good civil infrastructure; to deliver quality projects on time and on budget. That day has passed. Evidence suggests that Planet Earth is going through another of its periodic warming spells. Whether, or to what extent, this change is caused or exacerbated by mankind is a determination for another forum. What is certain is that the engineering profession has a clear and pressing obligation to help us adapt to changing circumstances even as it attempts to redress them.
