Description
"People have been constructing tall buildings for thousands of years, for many different reasons. Castle walls kept people safe. Observatories give people a bird's-eye view. Beautiful buildings stand out in the crowd. With a growing global population, we need more space. But what does that mean for the health of the planet? Tall buildings may be part of the answer to building a sustainable future."--Back cover.
