Abstract
Control of and adaptation to climate change should be an
established practice in urban planning. Predictions of
climate change in the next hundred years were made for
six study localities in Finland and their impact on plans
were analyzed. "The golden rules for planner" emphasize
local conditions, determining flood risk areas,
completion of urban form and avoiding urban sprawl,
forming good microclimate, control of storm water,
relatively compact structure, district heating and
renewable energy sources, prerequisites of public
transport, walking and cycling, mixing functions and
impact assessment.
