Differences between Sustainability and Resilience – Climate Change
Differences between Sustainability and Resilience – Climate Change
Professor Meerow discussed the differences between Sustainability and Resilience. Two such differences were the concepts of \”fail-safe\” vs. \”safe-to-fail\” and \”maximizing efficiency\” vs. \”maximizing adaptive capacity\”. Can you think of one specific example from your everyday experiences with the design/operation of your city that illustrates these differences?
Provide either documentation of a catastrophic failure or a well-designed adoption that established Sustainability and Resilience. Provide links if necessary.
