Green Mega-city

Statement of Intent:

     1.The goals of this project which is the creation of a green (eco-friendly) Mega-city are as follows:
  • To better organize and construct cities that are both ergonomical and easily navigable.
  • To help bring about a more green society.
  • To reduce pollution, caused by various activities we preform now.
  • And to increase global green space (parks and stuff), so that we are not destroying or using as much of our environment.
     2. This is important to take steps to preform this end goal now so that our future generations are not living in an unstable world that has become over crowded and over polluted. It is of great importance that we transistion over to cleaner forms of energy, and that we stop our spread outwards and start to go up inorder to increase or preserve what green space is left on our planet.

     3.I want to be an architech, this green mega-city fits in with this career goal, in that I will be designing this cities layout and designing  some of its buildings.

     4. A project like this would allow for the mass employment of thousands of workers. the job boom will be unprecedented. We will need architects and engineers to design and develope, construction workers to build, people to run and work in these various buildings after they are completed. Even farmers will benefit not just the people in the cities themselves, because the cities will need food and with the extra green space the farmers will have to work with they can produce more crops, and hire more hands.

     5. Once this project is completed or just even started people will have jobs and new homes and opportunities. Our economy will no longer be focused on fossil fuels inner city trade should prospur as well as trade between the cities. And the environment, the environment will be great it may take awhile but it will increase in green space, and we won't be using as many harmful pollutants, in fact at some point we may not even use any pollutants at all.

  1. Thinking Ahead on PSA:

    1. I would emphasize that these cities are going to increase global green space, by being built up and not out also that they will be more organized, that they will be completely self-sufficient, and that they will help reduce pollution.

    2. I will use a model to show case a small area of the city and detail, audioly its points of intrest and work to explain the model.

    3. I am looking for at least 2 good PSAs that I could use to better illustrate what I am saying, if anybody finds some post them here. Thanks. :)

  2. Here are two PSA videos that I found.

    The first video really showed and explained alot of the aspects of gree architecture. The second one did more of the same, but really noted its use in actuallity at Laguna Beach.
