Since the beginning of the industrial revolution, there have been some of the problems connected to the economic development like energy consumption, rising population and CO2 emission that were affecting on our environment. Precisely, we need to decrease the amount of CO2 emitted into the air. Lately, there was a Japanese company named (SDCJ) that tried to give a solution to this problem by designing a cool city. But for me it doesn’t seem to be the right solution.
Economically, companies which are handling these projects will have to pay millions or maybe billions to build these cities. However, for some people these cities would be too expensive to live in. These cities can take up to 50000 people (Masdar’s). This means a huge number of such cities are needed. Therefore, more billions are to be thrown on these projects. I don’t think they can provide it.
Also it is kind of difficult for some people to live in these cities if they are used to live in large ones because it has a limited space. Yes there will be solar panels and wind turbines but it is walled (Masdar’s) which would make some people feel like they are locked up.
In a conclusion, I don’t think it’s a good idea to build these cities because it will be just for people who can afford to pay and live in such cities. Freedom is one of the main reasons for happiness and we may miss a apart of it if we lived in a walled residence
