Built-environment research in water-resilience policy
The OECD’s assessment of water scarcity in the Paris metropolitan area draws on Professor Amir’s research when considering rainwater harvesting. The report uses the review in its discussion of alternative water supplies and the potential contribution of household-scale collection to drought resilience.
From buildings to metropolitan adaptation
The cited review, “State of the art of rainwater harvesting systems towards promoting green built environments: a review,” was written by Ali Ghaffarianhoseini, John Tookey, Professor Amir, Safiah Muhammad Yusoff and Norhaslina Hassan. Its inclusion connects research on greener buildings with metropolitan water-management decisions.
