dc.description.abstract |
In an urgent call for climate actions and a Green New Deal, policy such
as the “Ocean-Based Climate Solutions Act of 2020” looks to offshore
renewable energy to aid in the goal of a clean electricity system while
also looking to restoration and conservation of blue carbon habitats,
prioritization of regenerative ocean farming, and protection of front-line
communities. In recent years, off-shore wind has been pursued across
the world as a promising way to mitigate climate change.
The history of green-on-green conflicts point to how poor planning of
large-scale renewable energy infrastructure and lack of community
engagement leads to compromise in protecting critical habitats and
communities. To address this challenge, this project questions how
landscape architecture can play a key role in serving the interests of
public and local stakeholders while addressing the green-on green
conflicts around renewable energy development.
I offer a landscape approach which combines multi stakeholder and
multifunctional landscape techniques through a systems thinking
approach. This project shows how this multi-functional landscape
framework contributes to creating environmental, social, and economic
synergies around off-shore wind farm development in the era of climate
