Sustainable City

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 transportation

Nina P

sustainable transportation refers to low- and zero-emission, energy-efficient, and cost-effective forms of transportation, such as electric and alternative-fuel cars and domestic fuels. I think sustainable transportation is important since there are over 8 billion people on the planet, and most of them are going in the same direction. Why not save the earth while you head to work? Taking a bus could reduce the carbon footprint. there is room for 40-80 people on one bus and buses use about 137.2 miles in a day compared to a car's 137.4. Using a bus is a very obvious answer to the carbon footprint, but if you travel far and wide I might suggest an electric car that can be charged instead of using gases created in horrible conditions. All in all you should use buses and electric cars instead of gas cars.
