A joke that ive often heard from my friends who live in the union to the city of somebody good is wherever you are in the city. If you dig pre like guns, you will land up in exactly the same spot. Thats how it was land, the city. And when most of the cities in the country have sort of developed organically, without much wheezing or design or planning. And then police has liked and these are seem like an exception, and i do in so many ways that was a time when i wanted to live and suddenly got off the diode. But now things have taken an alarming done in the city. Lets head there to find out why they might look like normal residential buildings. But in fact, these houses a block of ground designed for a modern and if logic goes, plant city, know, 70 years old john the guide was built in the week of and guess could defend its 70 years ago today itself as the capital of 2 federal states and jobs and heavy on the city was designed by suspense architects. Luckily, see it is Blind Incorporated different sectors, a leisure sector, a restaurant on both sector and residential sectors. These effectively function as many cities themselves, boasting their own infrastructure. Its moving study moved here when he was a child. His family was one of the 1st to set in sunday guy. So hes witness. Its development from the very beginning. As carbuchia said its, hes design the city in the shape of a human body, the capital complex being the brain, the sect of 17 being the stomach, the university and the Industrial Area being the limbs and the lungs going green. We call them green bass. Going right through the city from lots of south, and that just come to the us. That is sol, beautiful. This is where all the green reverse plants. Sunday goes 1st come. This now was a botanist. He implemented lock of bushes, ideas, given the sub tropical dr. Climate, it was no easy task. As the colleges is having to go really explains. It involves some creative thinking on those. Itll be tough task, moving traffic, roads there and he planted the seed was these. So during winters these leaves in the fall and even more late on the road and close to the eh, houses chart, please. The lake ways close to the muskets or salt trees fluttering please. It would mean so that during summers the shuffle, the cyclist scan, dick showed the brief shelter under the suit of the key. In recent years, however, much has changed in trying to get old, originally planned for 5 loc residents, twice as many people now live here with 878 gosh, 4000 visitors. Its also a month in does most we could in cities, houses, roads and Shopping Centers of pushing nature out including these ancient fees, which along with 700. 00 others, a set to be fair to make. We wouldnt owe about the environmental activist avila bodies spend 4 years fighting the non single say. And if you look at the diamond rather street, it really pays me. I know, because we know the us. So being that a 3 like business, so many of them along this or the maybe got somebody supply or, and i dont think it makes any sense. A ton of these instances they will retain the cities green set of dates by planting other greenery for every 5th. 3, should be focus on planting indigenous trees. We also focus on planting trees, which have been documented at the time of conception of the city as to which every new is to have which kind of the tree. So all these factors that get didnt mind whenever a single tree is said to do, to whatever reason for the past 2 years, john, the good has been named the best union dentistry at the smocks, a piece of water, one cool i gave you for that is smaller, what will it be . Which the city is expanding more and more. Under this project mot, city has set up the largest public bike shading project. Anyone in the country . This has 5000 smart bites, some mindless electric, and john declared both sauce a dedicated, uh, uh, site the truck off to a 100 kilometers. Which to the best of my knowledge is on fire list and it is in the country. Ready the palace of assembly and High Court Building bought of the capital complex, well also designed by local police. Here in 2016, the complex was added to the unesco wood headed fits list. But living space is becoming increasingly this in the ever more popular city. This has led investors to compromise loc. Abuse is vision by building to close to up and what the bodies, the move in the city was among the lawyers with the action against the investors. They succeeded. Buildings erected by dislike to be demolished. Another developer wanted to build, took the 6. 00 of 35. 00 stories high each just north of the capital complex and called lucy didnt want any building this to that will also the Supreme Court find a defined. And im so glad i dont know what we would have done without the Supreme Court. Geneva is constantly trying to balance the 70 year old vision of its design of with the needs of a booming population. But having been such a full run, those in terms of redundancy and sustainability boxes, its all to prove that the 2 gun worked together, walking vast, hello to on green grass is this showing kind of nice. Green z is crucial for our mental health. The was Health Organizations recommend 9 square meters of green space for the individual, which is roughly the size of a small bed bucket. Imagine teen us, capitol, of windows iris. This is far from the web fox. Dont look like fox, im green z has become a lovely of the when this family wants to get out into nature, or even just talk to the playground that you like. Others here have to work at least a clocks in the sir. And he took the scrolling concrete, that one of the video that i left last i applied love to have a playground, a couple of blocks away and dont have to cross so many streets local and it would be great if there were trees around that provided shape so that the kids cut away without being the line to the time of the its almost almost some of the numbers are really spring into that more really so hot and go to them. Theyve been with so much concrete everywhere the city gets hotter and hotter, and i know the heat and really built on the color. When is iris now has over 15000000 inhabitants by 2030. That number is set to hit 70000000 right next to the playground, this a construction site. This is the case almost everywhere, especially in the city center. Old neighborhoods arrive the disappearing of being complete. The refinements for cities new up and Development Plan ensures that new residential blocks being erected on almost every corner. There a few regulations in place to protect Historic Buildings with inflation as high as 100 percent. Many prefer to invest in real estate instead of leaving the money in the bank, the consummate development. And because many residents, several neighborhoods initiatives of taking to the streets to protest against gentrification incident. And they may not, um, its completely indiscriminate over the Building Permits are issued everywhere for just about anything but in every neighborhood across the city. When a site is called 3. Nope, you see the city also lock screen spaces areas designated as public parkland, like the area near the old railroad, often end up being sold off to investors. China, Antonio Vasquez roost, frequently meets activists to just discuss such issues that saturday. I see what they did was to subdivide what could have been a large linear park and build right in the middle of it, leaving just small areas of green around it is i do see a door to put in daycare. So we have this whole front that you see here by the high right long. Yeah, its high density is went up on function. So theres very little greenery around. Oh, so youve got the buildings are 10 to 12 stories high enough on 2nd. So it is not a green space to come own across you. It was, you know, it shouldnt assume that rachel, Antonio Vasquez produced, collected data and created a map of the windows out a green spaces. According to his calculations, there are just 5 square meters of public green Space President of the city, new york. Meanwhile, those 13 square meters, if you, i mean the more thank you, the data shows that there are not only 2 few green spaces for the number of people, but that theyre also on even leave distributed and mostly located in the cities, wealthiest neighborhoods in the lobby of my 2nd, well, had no idea how nivia my people, the forest districts, have the least access to green spaces that we can see on. But i mean, and for families who cant travel, parks are the only way to access nature. And the city does whoever funds some initiatives, encouraging move greenery like this cooperative. For example, during the cubic pandemic its members converted a new used part of the site into another garden. They know certainly grow their own vegetables here, but also offer educational projects to School Children and neighbors. And if any everyone is welcomed. Todays topic is composting, the 6, the wordly merrill garden. We want to educate people about Healthy Eating and get the message across that we can all grow vegetables at home. And i live in there, look at the bottom of that unless we provide information and support for those who want to start doing this themselves. You know, well, im going to go also, so ill add it back to the playground. The family spends the whole sundays yeah. No greenery is needed. Not just to say the parents a little less than on. I think theres a lack of Public Awareness about the importance of green space is a city, thats what it sounds like. Youre doing properly know what the impact is of living in areas that dont have them in the city authorities have promised to create much new park areas, but many residents ready. Disillusioned by the encroaching reality of the concrete jungle. Quite as iris has lots to offer. But it certainly needs to welcoming more green phosphorylation is a key element of the modern fos speeds like b as in businesses in the last few years. How would the mines and the money to come up with the Innovative Solutions . Because the negative ex analyses of transportation like congestion, traffic jams or Climate Change box with big back on big promises. And these will, it is, might have under estimated the scale of this child. The transportation issues are nothing new. If you think of just the modes of transportation throughout history, this going from uh, you know, horse and buggy to rail to ocean going betsel, steam liners, uh air ships. Um, theres always been something new to try out that would solve some of the problems of the old and each one of those newest things has introduced its own new problems. Todays transportation mix is no exception. The biggest problem is that roughly a quarter of Global Energy related Carbon Emissions are linked to transport. But thats just one of many. Many people have the experience of being stuck in traffic, and of course people dont like that. Theres also the high cost of kind of owning a vehicle if you have to do that in order to get around. And unfortunately, you know, in many places, Transit Services are not always the most accessible. The most efficient, even the most affordable traffic jams are so universally hated that theres a bunch of jokes and moves, Little Wonder that tech trans jumped onto the transit bandwagon. Big tech has reshape the economy and flashy hype, fuel presentation, no matter what their substance were. Key and so instead of kind of really mundane things like invest in bosses and uh, you know, think about how we distribute st space and maybe make some cycle lane. It sounds a lot more attractive to say all the cars are going to start driving themselves, and were going to make this new tunnel system for transportation. And were going to have flying cars. Finally, investors and media, laptop, high tech, exciting new transit projects. And the company you saw potential to people spend loads on transit in the us. For instance, 16 percent of Household Spending goes to transportation. Second only to house. And while investors currently only have promises not results to go on, its hasnt stopped them. For example, youre on muskets, the Boring Company name that because they bore tunnels, get it, picked up 675000000. 00 in private capital in 2022. Local governments have also jumped on board. Musk announced deals, promising to build underground tunnels for high speed travel in chicago and Fort Lauderdale in 2018. In 2021. We either have been built so the high train is rolling, the Venture Capital is blowing. Everything is fine and dandy to a Tech Companies have to deliver on their spectacular promises. One of the most glaring examples of hyperlinks, a high speed above ground vacuum to popularized by mosque in 2013 and pursued by a number of firms hun deterred by the failure of his above ground travel project. Musk opted to go underground with his boring come. First, the pledge to dig elaborate systems of tunnels under cities where autonomously dripping pods with 16 passengers would sit around with ease. That became a place to develop a system of so called states, which would sweep electric cars across town at speeds of up to 210 kilometers an hour. Which became a one way tunnel to drive test was through at about 65 kilometers an hour called dilute, which at least exists. You sold the systems to a bunch of cities around the united states. And in most cases they have not materialized. And then the only place where it, where it has, which is las vegas, its a short tunnel that connects up the convention center. And its mainly just in a, in attraction for has was, you know, its a way to sell teslas. Its not really affecting traffic, its not really solving transportation problems. Its really, i call it a disney land ride for tesla fed. Western billing areas arent the only ones with tech. That sounds more impressive than it looks. China is autonomous, real rapid transit. Thats gotten heights for being a cheaper alternative to standard trends and it has been tested in guitar and australia. Its quote unquote, trackless tram system that traverses roads and has a driver despite being called autonomy. Thats right. Pretty much a bus looks kind of cool, but not a transit revolution. And then there is the holy grail of sy fi flying cars. Some Companies Like jo be, are working on what they Call Electric vertical takeoff and landing cubicles. Were flying taxes. Even the biggest luddites have to admit that these are cool, though they look more like fancy helicopters and flying cars. Toby hopes to launch these fully electric vehicles in 2025. It should have a range of 240 kilometers, but youll be expect the average trip to be around 40 kilometers, meaning flying, taxis would complement not replace existing transport networks. If and when these Tech Solutions materialized, they often bring with them their own sort of regulatory costs and safety challenges or failed to solve. Some of the biggest translators, ideally, mass transit should serve the masses. That means recognizing it as a public good, something flashy private innovation distracts from. If we wanted to do it, we could have been making investments in Transit Service and investments in psych, plenty of the structure and doing, you know, other things in order to address these issues. Instead of waiting for the Tech Industry to create solutions that were never actually going to solve anything in the 1st place. Practical transits, solutions that encourage people to ditch private cars are often a bit boring. While the electric buses popping up all over the world are cool, there know, flying cars and transit researchers might be the only people on the planet who think the bikes are sexy. I have one right here in the background to tell i get the toward the theyre pretty under stated, theyre easy to maintain low cost. They enable quicker and longer bike trips without the cost of showing up sway or tired it takes and buses are great local transit solutions. But what makes them really shine is dedicated lanes. Like boca tubs, bus expressway is where amsterdam expensive network of bike paths. And theres always room for innovation like emitting where cable cars help traverse spence, the built steep terrain. So it will take them much more than flashing animations to solve our traffic problems. Let alone curb transits, climate impact. Deep billions of Venture Capital and cheap super tension. These Tech Solutions garner would probably be better invested in truly boring, but more efficient, Real Solutions globally basis contribute to nearly 12 percent of the door to atlantic warming emissions. But in india, and not only is this number much higher, but it is also a drop of leading season. For instance, last year in the month of october, within a span of 5 days. During the week of divide, the vehicles contributed to more than half of the door to particular tomato present in the scary, short but electrically close could be providing a practical solution. They provide a key note, im getting a pot weight, but how will this transition be implemented . Lets ask jen, a vandals who entity, one of them of the noise is exhausting more than 6000000 motorbike than cause horse. The waste switch and night every day. Emerson levels of sky high things need to change the climate document. Climate change aspect of the thing in a Climate Change means we have to ship from combustion engines to electric vehicles. More leaders have promised to gradually introduce watson mules and to have us better now gate was like 2050 or 2017. By which time their countries will have made a complete split for the 1st initial Energy Source is low and then a lot of money has been invested already. And change is alondo 8 when the ga. Gov. Well in this one. But we have done and which connecticut with young people in particular like doctors do best in on already making the shift is make sense economically to claim within just absolutely major. Theres an amount of money on a daily, with his ankle image seems to be a huge role in deal pollution and Climate Change thing, which is why the government is promoting electric baker. I decided to buy and even to save money and also so that i could do my bit and make a contribution to society of all of that. So say youve got to find the money in which to be mobility is also an opportunity for the city stop. Its like really its electric. Do we lose deliver goods from online retailers . The company says its okay ministration. Let me go on the public before the public was notice separately, benefits, you know, maintenance costs avoiding rising fuel costs if you wouldnt, an less pollution. Ok. So in the cost people can save a lot of money by going electric. The, for example, with an easy new one, you can travel up to 100 kilometers for just 15, a fucking around 17 jewels and i want to go to public. Whereas with the federal run, he goes and youre looking at more than 100 to be sort of plugged into the right. So one euro 0. 12 for just fucked. Economic does. All you do. So people are keen to try out enough. I think let me know, im going to go make it right. So people are moving to, you know, even the capital of canada got is known as india, silicon valley, despite its 56 equitation. It has the same levels of noise and, and felicia as an Old Industrial city. One company has recently converted its and dial lead to electric, weakness drivers like this and not very impressed. Look to have a goods are easy to drive. There are no gears or flats. We get to break in an extra letter, so they are much nice at the drive and traffic can make, i think, go sweet combustion indians to make a lot of noise. Where as easy as our smoke, the customers really like the feel of them, its up to you today. We had to 31 and put up the capital of get it up. You reason a lot of these have drive to get a handle on air pollution by deafening images. Regulations, updating the diesel engines of every goes to fit for new norm would have been very expensive for a district shop with usa. So instead to build a brand new, me run on electricity on like a warranty decision. Uh, the government at that time, they uh, you know, know that, that will be initiated and order enough for us. What is the 1st time im in this evening . And im so the only refund from the, from the company to company with the support of the government are getting those government grants. Bio is a subsidy of up 220002 be around 350. 00 units on ebay crews with cheesy plus those Tax Exemption for 5 years. But critics say the take up is still far too low. And the party let and im a claimant didnt mean to get on if we want to mitigate Climate Change is that we have to stop using fossil fuels. Either favour though, given the ending of the scientists and research, ultimately we have just 70 is go, reduce emissions by 50 percent. We get the ability to download it and i remote in and thats not a lot of pain. I mean, we have to double the the we are currently moving ad on them and that means leaving mess up fees to email you at the moment. Ok mama, what am as you can switch them out, talk about georgi infrastructure is still insufficient and of course the electricity used to josh electric vehicles must come from renewables. Thats the only way they can be truly sustain it. But nonetheless, these initiatives in Southern India are making a small but important contribution towards a clean of future. I hope the next time we sit in our car or hop on a bus or call us back, see wed falls and seeing if theres a green note option available to let us know if there is anything youll do to make your daily commute a little more equal than you can email us or reach out to me directly on my sources handles.
