本文阐述了在紧凑型城市议程的背景下，使郊区适应气候变化的挑战。我们认为，虽然紧凑型城市的辩论确实在战略层面上解决了减缓气候变化的问题，但它并没有具体考虑调整现有的郊区以应对预期的变化。我们讨论了郊区适应的可能性和挑战。在建筑环境方面，这些挑战包括：改造现有住房的困难，土地和住房的分散所有权和管理，以及郊区变化的缓慢步伐。在动员社会变革影响适应方面，确定了协调多方伙伴关系、发展政治意愿、获得公众接受和鼓励行为改变等问题。我们得出的结论是，郊区对实现转型构成了独特的挑战，鉴于减缓和适应措施之间的潜在冲突，“可持续发展”和“气候变化”话语尚未完全整合。
This paper sets out the challenges of adapting suburbs for climate change in the context of the compact city agenda. We argue that while the compact city debate does address mitigating climate change at a strategic level, it does not specifically consider adapting existing suburban areas to cope with anticipated changes. We discuss the possibilities for, and challenges of, suburban adaptation. In terms of the built environment, such challenges include: difficulties retrofitting existing housing stock, the fragmented ownership and management of land and housing, and the slow pace of change in suburban areas. In terms of mobilizing social change to affect adaptation, problems of coordinating multi-actor partnerships, developing political will, generating public acceptance, and encouraging behaviour change are identified. We conclude that suburbs pose unique challenges for realizing transformations, and that the 'sustainable development' and 'climate change' discourses have yet to be fully integrated in the light of potential conflicts between mitigation and adaptation measures.
