    Evaluation of the Green Campus Approach on the Campuses in Turkey
    (Serkan ŞAHİNKAYA, 2017) Demiroğlu, D.; Cengiz, A.e.; Karadağ, A.
    The universities resemble to small cities with the area they occupy, their population and their activities. Therefore they have direct or indirect negative effects on the environment. It is important for universities to minimize these effects by taking necessary precautions. The purpose of the green campus implementation is to minimize the negative effects on the environment. “Green Campus” expresses the education, application and communication environment that focuses on “sustainability”. In related literature green campus criteria are defined generally in the context of headlines as: sustainability of environment and infrastructure, sustainability of adaptation to energy and climate changes, sustainability of waste and water management and sustainability of transportation. This paper starts with giving information about green campus criteria, then the some university campuses were evaluated within the context of these criteria in Turkey.

    A sustainable and integrated framework for local governments: Smart city
    (Peter Lang AG, 2019) Demiroğlu, D.; Karadağ, A. A.
    Urban areas, which cover only 2% of the world's surface and which are the most important regions where people live, produce 80% of the greenhouse gas emissions and consume 75% of the natural resources in the world, and these rates are increasing in parallel with the urbanization rate of population. For this reason, various planning and urban concepts/approaches have been developed in recent years, which include the efforts to make urban resources more efficient and economical, and to make cities more livable such as sustainable cities, ecological cities, green cities, slow cities, low carbon cities. Though they have different names, what these approaches have in common is to create awareness of different ecosystems and to plan sustainable cities that consume low energy and water, preserve natural ecosystems, and thus ensure sustainable development. These approaches, which have developed with the increasing awareness of environmental consciousness and climate change, are dealt together with the developments in information and communication technologies in the 21st century; and, they entail the emergence of the concept of "Smart Cities" which bring great innovations and conveniences to local governments in many areas such as transportation, communication, health, safety, energy efficiency, water use and waste management. This chapter defines the concept of smart city; provides information about its components; and examines its role in achieving the sustainability targets of local governments. © Peter Lang AG 2019.
