Towards O-Impact Buildings & Built Enviroments

0-Impact goes one step further than 0-energy. It addresses building and design issues from an environmentally neutral perspective. It obviously includes energy neutral building, but adds the challenge of water use, use and producing of materials, and use of land. 0-impact should result in a built environment that is in balance with its environment in all senses, and truly sustainable in the long run. This book is a compilation of key notes contributions (from Hermann Scheer, Nils Larsson, Rolf Disch et al. ) and selected papers.
