Abstract

There is hardly a discipline where the challenge of climate change is more profound than physical planning. The fact that physical planning deals with the location, control and monitoring of human activities that are carried out on the surface of the earth necessitates the need for planners to be mindful of any significant environmental phenomenon such as climate change. Therefore, this paper attempts a cursory look at the suitability of the existing physical planning standards to meet the unfolding environmental realities occasioned by climate change. It therefore assess the need to overhaul the standards currently in operation in the physical planning discipline with a view to rework those that are found to be inadequate.
