Here's your chance not just to be the mayor, but the original city planner as well! Imagine a medium sized city that would be developed with modern, low carbon transportation in mind, and other strategies to reduce the average citizens' carbon footprints.
What would that city look like? Would that make you more likely to want to live there?

SUStainable cities
A more sustainable city should have specific laws promoting sustainability, like a limit on the amount of plastic used in products there. Downsizing apartments/living spaces in general would help make the most use out of less land. An inexpensive and accessible public transportation system would also be an important aspect of reducing pollution from cars. Lastly, urban farming methods (hydroponics, aeroponics, vertical farming)—which optimize the crop for a small amount of space—would also reduce the carbon emissions that would be produced by transporting food.
I thoroughly agree. This would create a safer environment for all living creatures, and would greatly help our population reach a healthier level of food, pollution, etc.
