520    In the context of urban sustainable development, the 
       "details" of sustainability's current expressions 
       perpetuate environmental injustice, untenable growth, and 
       the destruction of functioning ecosystems. In response to 
       this state of affairs, Adventures in Sustainable Urbanism 
       aims to prompt new debates about the consequences of 
       sustainable urbanism as it moves from planning to 
       practice. Contributors explore policy, practice, and 
       experience from cities around the world, including Calgary,
       Christchurch, Dortmund, Vancouver, and others. Written by 
       scholars who live in these cities, chapters offer 
       empirically rich descriptions for opening up new lines of 
       thinking, theorizing, and debate about the sustainable 
       city and its actual material expressions in place. By 
       examining the sustainable city through various analytical 
       framings, contributors urge readers to move from viewing 
       the sustainable city as something everyone can agree on, 
       to a highly politicized and contested process. Additional 
       resources are provided for readers who may wish to extend 
       their own research into a city or theme
