Beyond Technology: Demand-Side Solutions for Climate Change Mitigation (2016, background): “A more compact urban form tends to lessen building energy consumption and GHG emissions due to lower per capita floor areas, reduced building surface-to-volume ratio, increased shading, and more opportunities for district heating and cooling systems (63).”
