- Communities around the world are currently faced with a number of large scale environmental challenges, including dangerous, irreversible climate change. Many of these challenges stem from cities and our resource intensive urban lifestyles.
Fortunately, an array of concrete solutions to these challenges are already being developed and implemented in cities around the globe!
So we set off on an inspirational journey to explore the most innovative ideas, technologies and initiatives being used by cities today as they strive to create more livable and sustainable cities. We sought out leading cities that would offer a source of inspiration and with the potential to stimulate wide scale change which sets us on the path towards a one-planet future where humans live in harmony with nature.

Thank you NORWAY for inventing the green cities and the green roofs (the Vikings originated in Norway and had wooden houses with turf roofs).
You do know Vikingr means Pirate?
Hope that this kind of urban green planning will hopefully implemented in our country Philippines 🇵🇭😭😓
u should vote better then because political will is a great factor
These videos always make me optimistic about the future, however, it's really sad to see some of these green initiatives putting NUCLEAR ENERGY in the "bad" type of energy sources rather than being one of the best.
Very true, nuclear and hydro is the future of energy.
There is no good or bad energy source. The ”bad” things is using any type of energy. We need to use so much less energy to not destroy the planet for us (everyone else will be fine its really only about us humans). This ”less” use of energy is not possible if we have a economic system that is dependent on growth.
@@karigrandii Coal is pretty bad, no matter how you try to dress it up.
@@karigrandii Well trying to save energy and reduce consumption is better for the environment, people need to live well (especially in developing nations) thus changing to renewables and nuclear is the realistic way without destroying civilian lives.
electric vehicles alone wont save us - they are resource intensive. the priority needs to be on active transportation - walking, bicycling, and taking public transit
Very happy to see Vancouver get featured! So proud the city is moving towards a greener and eco-friendly ways of living. The Earth provides us with resources, air, water, food, and scenic beauty, so we should all take care of our planet.
6 years old but still relevant. I hope more young people will see this so that they carry the button forward
WWF is a pretend organization, that's why nothing is being done really; they just suck up resources for their bureaucracy
Going Green 🙌. It is imperative to have such progressive sustainability strategies worldwide. This underpins new future innovations including architecture, solar and the manufacturing dimensions going forward. Very insightful. 👌
Great video! I'm very happy various places around the world is getting on board with sustainability....now if each citizen does his or her part we can be sustainable a lot faster, even if it's capturing the cold water runoff from our shower as it gets warm and using it to water the plants in the garden.
Very critical! As currently we are just depleting nature... One important issue I see unmentioned is.. The basic architecture of building or property needs to be radically changed. Few things must be considered:
1. Roof top gardening to make up for the surface area lost.. 2. When possible having sky scrapers with exclusive floors for plants/agriculture(I know it's not easy, but possible). 3. When planning road system.. making sure we are leaving certain percentage of nature untouched.. I personally can see having overpass or bridges just to cultivate fruits and veges
We're depleting NATURE? what about the wild animal trophy hunting the founder of this corporation has shot down dead? www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/prince-philip-proudly-poses-tiger-6174056
What about the weather modification which has beeb on going world wide which is infesting the soil making it flammable, killing the bees, filling the tree's roots our lungs and blood stream with aluminum nano particles so they can cry UN's Sustainable Developments "climate change" ?
Nature bridges that allow animals to cross highways are very important to maintain the natural environment. A cable system above or a galvanized pipe underneath would be all that is needed.
Green Roof need to be added on all City terrace
what about in the desert?
desert put solar panels @@tjs200
tell that to the politicians, they will say ''how can we tax that''?
SO MUCH SEOUL. I love it.
very very informative and i feel travelled around the world.. thank you for the spectacular video
Very moving and inspiring!
merci beaucoup vous m'inspirez comme pas possible !!
I am kind of surprised the role that photovoltaic electricity is playing in Vancover's green initiative. I would think a city like Phoenix Arizona would be a more likely place.
This should be adopted around the world
Хороший фильм ! Молодцы ! Настоящие Люди ! Цавт танэм .
Woaw, nice video, very optimistic, we have to continue in this way. Congratulations !

The Greatest solution to making our cities energy abundant could be no other that fusion reactor when Hydrogen would be turned into helium to give us abundant energy without causing any harm to our environment and on that day we all humans would leave the helium balloons into the air to celebrate our victory.
It's 2020 now...wonder how many of the goals mentioned that they wanted to be accomplished by this year actually were? Nice video!
I do feel like they're doing pretty well though. In the summer, they close down alot of streets to have markets and festivals, popular busses have been getting bus lanes, and there's alot of new cycling trails/seawall trails being built.
I just wish they'd do something about the housing prices... avg house here is now a million dollars, at this rate it'll be a great city but only the rich will be able to afford to live here.
@@ruisen2000 Woops, forgot to specify I meant in Seoul (mentioned at 13:00 in the video) - I used to live in South Korea and really wonder a lot what they're doing to lessen their environmental impact. Got to visit Vancouver semi-recently and it's my absolute dream-city, although it just seems wayyyyyyy too expensive and I'm not sure how to actually be able to afford living there. :/

None! , another "nice " video...(2022)...
It's crystal clear thank you for sharing this information 🙏
Fantastic and inspirational. I will share with my kids, my nephews, my cousins, my colleagues.
We can do this. We must and the outcomes are going to be wonderful. We just need to see clearly a way ahead with visionary leadership and easy steps to make these beneficial transitions.
Love this film work and the thoughtful organization of the film. Congrats to the authors, directors and team who pulled this together.
tq for this insight, we need this best practice to develop our country
really fascinating video!
A very amazing short documentary. I wonder how 39 people disliked it.
they probably think climate change is a grand exaggerated lie orchestrated by the left and by climate scientists to push their "green agenda". And universities are in on it of course because tertiary education is a tool to brainwash society. I imagine they also believe the earth is flat. It's amazing the justifications people can come up with to avoid having to change or accept responsibility.
i lived in seoul my whole lifetime , but never heard of this stuff
This is so inspiring! Love this!
Watching from Kenya👍 some nice content 🔥
Hey I am working on this for our new upcoming city
Vancouver needs to build more homes to bring prices down so more people can move there to live this green lifestyle.
💚💚💚
Very nice video! So informative and inspiring! :)
Awesome vid!

Great video! 9:37 typo
I hope they did what they wanted to do in 2020 becouse im i it thank you this helped me in homework
Are you a NWU Potch student?
Same this help me with homework too

15:11 interior building green walls!
I hope that in future pedestrian and bicycle ways will get photovoltaic roofs as sun & rain protection and energy harvesting driving free LED Lights and E-Bicycle recharge stations and saving CO2.
A green healthy and sustainable and resilient way of life is the way forward e.g using renewable energy like solar power.
Way forward!
enjoyed the video gave me lots of food for thought.
That's all there will be for food, thought.
Have any of you looked into the hyundai ioniq hybrid? My fiancé has one and we only fill the tank once a week. Kicker: he works 45mins away, we go out a lot to friends and family, go shopping... for $20 a WEEK! The battery charges itself when you break or slow down, essentially every time you take you foot off the accelerator you're not wasting gas and it does not turn off on you like some other cars do. WORTH THE INVESTMENT!!!!!
Do you have to plug it in to an outlit, how long and how often?
nice docume.
I dont see malaysia moving except for the MRT
this can be achieved if we believe and commit to action....we cast our fate by the choices we make
1 less power plant. Thank you Seoul
I love how everyone but America has their “stuff” together except calli but other then that we need to do something about that
👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️ ✌️ for all on 🌎

Good video until it mentioned Cape Town. Hardly a model city when it is suffering water shortages, due to overuse, poor plumbing and very little water recycling or conservation.
Very Good Point. But I think the video is trying create momentum for positive action to be taken in each city. Cause I'm sure a lot of residents of the other cities will point out their flaws that need changing Too. Don't feel bad Its not Cape Town alone suffering from slow progress.
We can actually see the EV thing in action a bit now that the Tesla Model 3 is out. It is crazy how many of them are suddenly on the road now. It was an almost overnight change. Now someone needs to mass produce EV trucks and SUVs and even more people will be on board.
Go green.
India is focus on pure Electric Public transport . 50% of public transport will be converted to Electric vehicles. Even Cab services like OLA ( Indian uber ) has already started Electric cab services. Road and Transport minister of India is very focused on going Green.
And how are we enjoying the chemtrails and weather modification which is covering the sun with nano particles? Know Mr UN Maurice Strong the oil and business who claimed owning private property breeds inequality and injustice but purchased 160, 000 acres in Colorado. Maurice Strong the creator of "climate change" co2 is plant food. If it weren't it wouldn't be piped into a tomato and cucumber pickling factory in Switzerland, stealing co2 from the trees and plants for their profit and call it a green experiment.
I think use of cars / vehicles of all types must be minimised. Electric is kind of alternative, but still is noisy and needs a place which is better be for tree.
The world will end no matter what we do .
was this an electric car / solar panels commercial?
I always felt uncomfortable about mission statements. The real honest mission statement of all companies is to make the most ROI, money for investors/owners; without breaking the law. That's all. Smart money follows the greedy. The Western baby boomer generation will be remembered as greedy, short sighted and indulgent.
Save Our Planet - Sharing, Justice and Peace for all.
Who's going to save humanity from the damn green wash saviours. Where is the peace in Syria? Where is the peace in causing droughts and floods using weather modification? Where is the justice for people being moved around like chess pieces for a one world government which is controlled by bankers and corporations?
Except for the Animals we pay others to slaughter alive unecessarily for our dinner plates and dietary choices that are literally killling US. Let's not let those animals have peace.... When you said ALL you clearly meant you and those that share your lifestyle.
Let's not look at how much CO2 animal agriculture produces every single day.... Or how all those dying of hunger and poverty could be fed and cared for, if we stopped feeding THEIR crops to our livestock so we could buy an animals tourtured life for a dollar at McDonald's....
Peace for all my ass.
As long as there are slaughter houses, there will always be battlefields.
Still mostly within ourselves.
"planing" and "planning" are two different words
That's good
We must find solutions for poor cities where people cant have technical solutions
Goal shouldn’t be to have 10% of cars as electric.
Goal should be 10% lesser cars
If you live in an urban area how much are used for commuting? That means a vehicle big enough for 5 passengers is being used over and over for only one passenger. If you need to commute use a vehicle for one passenger. It would be physically smaller can have pedals, electric or scooter sized gas. Since the passenger weight is much smaller the structure can be more delicate and lighter further saving energy. For every commuter car you could have four of these velomobile/ scooters reducing congestion and saving wear and tear on the roads and bridges. They would be enclosed to allow a dry environment with heat and air conditioning. They should be able to carry upto a 240lb rider and 100lbs of luggage.
No cars at all. We should only live in cities and the population must be reduced by 90%.
I whish someone would mention all the goods and materials people and the government buy and import as well ...BUT ...NOT BAD SO FAR
POV: geography homework
what were all the counrties and cities

Hello...i love this video, where i can see t without the subtitles
Electric cars are still cars. Batteries are made by some of those kids that get paid $2 a day
WSH il a buse le prof d'anglais wola
et les français c'est quoi le resumé de la video svp
A green earth is a high temp, high CO2 earth. But getting more locally generated renewable energy is a good thing.
I agree with the green roof, but they dont discuss what powers the electric vehicles. You would have to burn more coal to power all those vehicles, I also dont agree with forcing people to buy an electric car under a quota.
SWARJE
Forgive me for butting in but have anyone heard about "free energy"?
Biodiesel , biodigesters
Pourquoi ça dure 30 minutes c trop long 😭
mdr devoir d'anglais non ?
No way... it all comes down to the consumer? Ale gore 4 president
Very sad that even WWF seem to think that the answer to our environmental crisis is for everyone to buy electric vehicles.
y think that the use of synthetic grass turf should be prohibited in cities . this soil covering harms the environment and health causes no evaporation and heat -co2 absorbtion and warms twice than natural grass . it contributes to heat islands effect in cities and climate change
Thumbs down for suing the real WWF
We must live in cities. Rural areas must be off limits to humans. By force if necessary.

The electric car isn't a good solution. Start designing cities around people, not cars. That is the ONLY way to make a difference and be serious about the climate.
American logic
Someone give me 8 useful things from this video. Please and thank you 🥺
The first part of the documentary is biased. Electric vehicles are not the "solution", the way EV were promoted seemed so pushy. They should rather focus on public and active transportation like they are doing in Seoul.
Look it is the size of the vehicle, if you commute by car you could use a much smaller single seat vehicle which would reduce the use of energy and the wear and tear of the roads and bridges. Commutes would speed up because of the reduction of the physical footprint. A velomobile type scooter would provide a warm dry environment for the commuter.
Irrevisible ??? Who visit cosmetic CENTER( war zone)frequently due to events you initiated?? You can ✋ it.
a lot of these ideas are just concept-stage and barely scrape the surface. They are being promoted by people who dont really understand the science involved. Some real-world highly useful options include solvent-free paints eg Lakeland Paints - which are solvent-free, VOC-free, Non-toxic and actually edible ! Surely, paint solvent is a tiny concern you might think ?? Not at all - paint emitted 24 MILLION tons of greenhouse-gas solvents into the atmosphere last year and every year (WHO 180 et al) - and these solvents are on average 20-50x worse than CO2. So - if you really want to do something to help counter global warming you could do a lot worse than switch to one of the VOC-Free paints out there.

A city in the current economic system and its current state CAN NOT be sustainable. I dont understand how they think cities can consume so much from outside the city and somehow be sustainable? If you learn to live off the city itself, where the food is produced in the city and next to it, material for buildings and products only taken in or next to the city, then it can be truly sustainable. Cities are just mega consuming hot spots that only exist because its good for economic growth. Cities will slowly disappear either by force or by choice.

Once a human reaches the age of 40 they should be recycled into the food chain.

9:33 That is a lie. People will understood. It cost more for a electric vehicle than a regular car. That is why the government has these programs for a rebate when you purchase a electric vehicle...to make it seems more cheaper than gas engine cars. So who end up covering the cost of the rebate ? It is you and I who end up covering the cost of rebate. How you ask ? Well do you not pay taxes. ?
Even without a tax rebate. How on earth does a $35k Model 3 cost more in the long run then a gas car?

Great documentation, but the WWF is crap.
7:46 using EVs is a very dumb solution, for them to be green you need the electricity to be green and EVs also put a big stress on power systems, the better solution would be better public transport and to encourage more bicycle use
