对许多人来说,伟大的美国梦与大的单户住宅、大片土地和独立的感觉联系在一起。现在,公共卫生和城市规划专业人士声称,这种愿景已经走得太远了。他们把从肥胖、交通伤害到环境破坏等一系列问题归咎于一种被称为“蔓延”的现象。一项名为“智能增长”的运动正在挑战我们建设、工作和生活的方式,并鼓励我们不仅将社区视为居住场所,而且将其视为促进健康和福祉的工具....智能增长努力保护农田和开放空间,振兴社区,并提供更多的交通选择。智能增长鼓励对现有社区进行再投资,更有效地利用现有基础设施和交通选择。它促进紧凑型发展和混合用途社区的创建,这些社区整合了一系列住房和商业服务,并为各种收入水平的人提供服务。然而,智能增长运动的一个中心主题是选择。倡导者强调,设计良好的社区在住房、交通、就业和娱乐方面提供多样化。在公共卫生领域,一个名为“积极生活”的平行运动强调以自行车和行人为导向的设计、交通平静化、混合用途开发和“安全路线上学”项目等元素,这些项目允许居民将步行和骑自行车等体育活动融入日常生活。语言:在
For many, the great American Dream is associated with large, single-family homes, lots of land, and a feeling of independence. Now, public health and urban planning professionals claim this vision has gone too far. They blame a phenomenon called sprawl for a host of problems, from obesity and traffic injuries to environmental destruction. A movement called Smart Growth is challenging the way we build, work, and live, and is encouraging us to look at communities not only as places to live but as vehicles to promote health and well-being.... Smart Growth strives to protect farmland and open space, revitalize neighborhoods, and provide more transportation choices. Smart Growth encourages reinvestment in existing communities, more efficient use of existing infrastructure, and transportation choices. It promotes compact development and the creation of mixed-use communities that integrate a range of housing and commercial services and serve a variety of income levels. However, a central theme in the Smart Growth movement is that of choice. Advocates stress that well-designed communities offer variety in housing, transportation, employment, and recreation. Within public health, a parallel movement called Active Living emphasizes such elements as bicycle- and pedestrian-oriented design, traffic calming, mixed-use development, and "safe routes to school" programs that allow residents to integrate physical activity such as walking and bicycling into their daily lives.
