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?

alternatives to planes
Aviation accounts for 3.5% of climate change, producing 2.8% of the global carbon footprint. With this in mind, when you travel consider alternatives to flying, such as taking a train or bus, or even driving.Even though driving may produce more CO2, it has an overall lower effect, and if you drive with others, that can further reduce your impact. Another thing to consider is electric planes, which many countries are working towards, but will they come fast enough?
