Abstract
The paper focuses on four models of the relations between cities and t heir environmental hinterlands: these are self-reliance, redesigning t he city, external dependency, and the equitable balance or Fair Shares city, Each model has value in pointing towards improved policies for the sustainable city, but none of them provides all the answers.
