Cool Cities

Good Adaptations:

One of the good properties of the cool cities is that there will only be environmental cars and light rail transit. This will help reduce CO2 emissions from cars. In the cool cities video it showed that a third of the world’s emissions is from cars.

Another good point is that some cool cities will develop a technique to reduce the outside temperature. This will help people to walk freely inside the city.

The third positive point of the cool cities is there will be solar powered farms as the SDCJ video shows. This is a good way to prevent desertification. It’s also good because plants are vital to solve the global warming issue.


Bad Adaptations:

One of the problems in cool cities is that some cities are surrounded with water to supply the plants and other needs in the cities like cooling. Other cities will have sea water under the city like it’s written in “Cool ideas to beat the heat”. This will probably cause a water shortage.

Another negative point is that cool cities aren’t suitable for all people. That is because some people don’t want to replace the unfriendly environmental power sources with the power sources in cool cities.

The last unrealistic point is that making this type of city is very expensive. Every thing needed to make a cool city require a huge amount of money.
