Von Thünen Model for Use of Land I was posted on year 2008 on this blog.
Let's call this Von Thünen Model for Use of Land II
This is called Burgess - Urban Structure - Concentric Zone Model: Ernest Burgess based his city model on 1920's Chicago. In this model, the city grows out from the CBD in a ring patter. (Source:Models To Know) But I however think that von Thünen Model for Use of Land is the original reference behind this model.

Models To Know
Creating regenerative Cities by Herbert Girardet is an interesting article. (5.3.2015) This article describes
Metropolitan Adelaide, with a population of over a million people, has become a global leader in initiating regenerative urban development:
Efficient use of energy

Creating regenerative Cities by Herbert Girardet is an interesting article. (5.3.2015) This article describes
Metropolitan Adelaide, with a population of over a million people, has become a global leader in initiating regenerative urban development:
Efficient use of energy
- Make efficient energy use by all sectors a key focus of urban planning and management
- Modify building codes to make resource-efficient building practice the norm
- Create energy sufficiency standards to limit per capita energy consumption
- Introduce feed-in tariffs for renewable energy, enabling owners to sell electricity to the grid at preferential rates
- Support renewable energy development as an important new manufacturing industry
- "Waterproof" cities by encouraging water efficiency and rainwater collection in households and businesses
- Make wastewater recycling and reuse a central plank of water policy
- Develop new industries for processing organic wastes into soil-enhancing materials
- Implement policies for the cost-effective reprocessing of all technical wastes
- Use zero-waste policy to create new green businesses and jobs
- Encourage local peri-urban food production for local markets
- Encourage farmers’ markets and community-supported agriculture
- Create new pedestrian zones wherever possible
- Create a comprehensive network of dedicated cycle lanes across cities
- Encourage public transport by improving its attractiveness, frequency, and flexibility
- Stimulate development of new electric- and fuel-cell vehicle technology
- Encourage car-sharing as a key feature of urban transport
- Encourage tree planting for biodiversity and soil erosion control in and around the city
- Make carbon sequestration a key aspect of peri-urban tree planting
- Develop initiatives to help restore forests in remoter areas
- Boost green business by effective use of government procurement
- Encourage resource efficiency in all businesses
- Create “green business incubators” across the city
- Ensure that it is addressed through education, the media, and public events
- Ensure that all citizens have a stake in restorative development
- Produce regular reports on implementation of eco-restoration policies and practices (Source: Girardet Creating regenerative Cities)
