Description
Since the end of World War II, we have rebuilt our once pedestrian- and transit-friendly urban landscapes to accommodate the automobile. Today, our sprawling cities and suburbs are shaping us--but not always as we might hope. The third edition of Cascadia Scorecard examines the connections between urban design and the twin epidemics of obesity and physical inactivity and identifies steps toward a region where people are healthier, more satisfied with their lives, and are surrounded by thriving nature. Cascadia Scorecard 2006 is a regional gauge of progress designed by Sightline Institute (formerly Northwest Environment Watch).
