Abstract

Are we talking about urban regeneration by force or necessity? It is perhaps opportune a more careful reflection, which also concerns the ethics of the profession and its tasks.

Reuse something instead of discarding it rapidly, starting from important reasons, can be an act of love which expresses our dignity. (Encyclical letter “Laudato Si”, § 211).
