Cool Cities

A few years ago, people started to think how to decrease carbon emissions. One of the shining ideas is cool cities. Some think that people should go from modern cities to cool cities. In this blog, I will talk about the problem of modern cities, the solutions of this problem – cool cities -, and the practicality of that idea.

Modern cities are a big problem that we face in these times. And they help the carbon emissions to increase. According to Vicki Wolf in www.cleanhouston.org, the cars are a higher issue of heating the world. The carbon that comes out from the cars makes the earth hotter. Especially, cities with lots of traffic.

The shining idea to kill the fast increase of carbon emission is cool cities.
Cool cities are the solutions for global warming. They are the cities with zero carbon like Almasder in Abu Dhabi, and it will be in the rest of UAE to reduce the spread of carbon in the atmosphere.

In my opinion Almasder is a big jump in the UAE lifestyle, but according to The National in www.thenational.ae , the dream is not for all, because it will be not be every one’s lifestyle and it will be a small city according to the people in the UAE. Also no one will accept this idea directly. Because it’s new idea and it’s hard to be comfortable with this idea in only one year or two. people need time to be used to a change in their lifestyle.
