Practical Methodology for Developing Visions for Carbon‐Neutral Cities and Communities

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cities and communities play important roles in sustainable development and climate change mitigation. This study presents a novel framework for developing carbon‐neutral visions for cities and communities. We established five “principles,” investigated options encompassing four parameters (management, goal setting, actions, and quantification),
