Most of the earth’s population currently resides in urban areas, and it is a well-known fact that the surrounding environment may be significantly impacted by the planning and construction of our cities. Since the Industrial Revolution, human emissions of greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide, have increased. This increase is mostly attributed to the combustion of fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas. These gases intensify the greenhouse effect, retain heat in the atmosphere of the planet, and are quite likely the primary driver of global warming since the middle of the 20th century. Numerous effects of the changing climate are already evident, such as the health risks associated with extreme weather events. These effects will only get worse as the climate continues to change. To mitigate the extent to which the climate changes, it is crucial that we drastically cut our greenhouse gas emissions. The good news is that many nations are lowering their emissions; however, we still need to act much more quickly and with much greater enthusiasm. This is when Urban Physics comes into play. The concept of urban physics refers to the large community of scientists and researchers who use engineering and science to assist in the design of indoor and outdoor urban environments that are comfortable, beneficial to human health, and low-energy consuming. Aerodynamics, statistics, meteorology, environmental chemistry, and pertinent fields of physics are all included in the well-established field of urban physics. As a result of all of this, Urban Physics is in an excellent position to play a role in making significant contributions to the issues and challenges facing cities today. Understanding the physical mechanisms behind urban phenomena allows us to create models that assist in forecasting future changes in energy consumption and urban environmental conditions under various scenarios including the climate, energy, society, and urban development.
Conference Scope
In its 4th edition of the international conference on” Urban Physics for Environmental Integration and Well-being.” IEREK plans to start the conversation on how environmental integration can be achieved by using urban physics, and how they can both work hand in hand to achieve the well-being of residents and increase an urban space’s resilience and livability. Diverse perspectives and interpretations exist regarding what is necessary or acceptable in terms of environmental protection, and the study of environmental integration examines the ways in which governments can be instrumental in the development, promotion, and shaping of a single, comprehensive environmental policy. The shaping of this environmental policy using urban physics guarantees the well-being of the people living in urban spaces thus; granting much better lives free of pollution, extreme weather conditions, and environmental crises.
Statement of Purpose
The process of integrating environmental considerations into regular human thought, behavior, and practices is the most effective way to address the environmental difficulties that humanity faces, both individually and collectively. Globally, more individuals and institutions are considering environmental issues, yet attitudes, policies, and programs are not sufficiently integrated. The main objective of our conference is to take the fastest route that ensures the well-being of the residents of urban areas. The conference aims to use urban physics and all the relevant sciences related to the term including aerodynamics, statistics, meteorology, and environmental chemistry, to achieve environmental integration which ensures not only the resilience and the livability of the urban space but also the mental and physical health of its residents.
