FUTURE CITY:
GREEN CITYORAL PRESENTATION
DEFINITION OF GREEN CITY
GREEN CITY :-A green city is a city that is
environmentally friendly. It is a
city designed with the consideration of the environment and minimalizes
all harmful impacts on the
environment. It is also a sustainable city with a livable
environment, a strong economy
and a social and cultural sense
of community.
SECURITY
Security in a city is very important. Security is key in order to keep the citizens safe and to keep harmful.
Key elements of a city with good security is efficient police force and the cooperation of the citizens.
SECURITY IMPLEMENTATIONS
Regional Terrorism Prevention This program is a phone application to enable citizens to contact any nearby police force or homeland security force nearby if they are in danger or threat.
This program is very useful
as it makes the police force
flexible and efficient without spreading their numbers thin.
WATER MANAGEMENT
Water, the most important resource on Earth. Yet, it is neglected by most of the Humans on this Earth. This city will aim to save
every drop of water, including the ones that rain from the sky.
WATER MANAGEMENT
Storm Water Trenches. Storm water trenches are
trenches dug in between sidewalks, parking lots, anywhere between the soil.
They act as collectors of water when it rains.
WASTE MANAGEMENT
WASTE MANAGING
Envac System A vacuum operated trash or
recycle bin. This can make
streets cleaner without the
burden of overflowing trash
cans or the need of rubbish
trucks to collect the rubbish.
A vacuum operated piping
to transport the trash, makes using electricity with
the Envac system irrelevant.
This makes the Envac System very energy efficient
and very little energy usage.
Example of Envac Recycle bins :
TOURISM REGION
TOURISM ECO TOURISM
• Responsible travel to natural areas that conserves
the environment, sustains the well-being of the local
people
• It’s purpose is to educate travelers, to provide funds
for ecological conservation, to directly benefit the
economic development and political empowerment
of local communities
• Creates job opportunities and a stable income for
the local communities
Example :
Tubo Hotel,
Mexico
HOSPITALITY REGION
HOSPITALITY SECTOR
Hospitality Planning for Low-Class Citizens. A specific community
dedicated to providing and funding homes for low-class or homeless citizens. In return, these people
must work to earn their homes which can in time contribute to the employment and growth of the country
TRANSPORTATION AREA
TRANSPORTATION SECTOR
Multilevel Streets. Separating between the light
vehicles and the heavy vehicles.
Safer situations and more efficient
roads. Environmentally friendly Transportation. Electrical powered transportation.
Solar Powered Transportation.
Hover vehicles using the effect of magnetism.
This enables vehicles to go in much higher speeds and will totally cancel out the friction between the tires of vehicles and the road.
This will hence create smoother vehicle rides, satisfying the populace.
THE HENDO HOVERBOARD. A skateboard that uses the same implementation of using
the magnetism of an item to lift itself up
These hover boards will be an alternative towards people who cannot afford vehicles or prefer small vehicles.
ENERGY MANAGEMENT
ENERGY SECTOR
Solar Power • Solar Panel Smart Grids• Grids made pure of solar
panels. • Environmental friendly towards the Earth• Less dependency on fossil
fuels that might deplete one
day and creates an alternative source of fuel
• Pathway made of solar panels. • This enables more generation
of energy to be made not to
mention both less materials
and less electricity is used.
SOLAR PANEL GRID
Hydroelectric Dams. Environmentally friendly way to
produce electricity. Unlike Solar Panels, where they
are irrelevant during night time,
Hydroelectric Dams work 24/7.
These hydroelectric dams can
produce large amounts of energy
without even releasing a single
greenhouse gas. Running mainly on the rapid
flows of water to generate
energy, it is maintained by
workers. This can also benefit by creating
Job Opportunities.
DISASTER RELIEF SECTOR
Disaster Resilient Plans Disaster Resilient Structures
Double Stairstep Corners• These stairstep corners reduce the potentially dangerous
oscillations caused by high winds.
Tuned Mass Damper• A giant pendulum which swings in the opposite direction of
the sway of the building, preventing it from swaying too far.
Forming Disaster Teams.• Constantly on standby, this assures the safety of citizens
and eases the tense of the community
Example:
Tuned Mass Damper
Double Stairstep Corner
GREEN BUILDING
GREEN BUILDING
Green Roof System A roof of a building that is
partially or completely covered
with vegetation and a growing
medium, planted over a waterproofing membrane.
This green roof system acts as a
replacement of a drainage
system and is relatively cheaper
than the usual materials used
for a normal roof. It also provides insulation to the
building, which can in turn,
reduce the amount of cooling or
heating systems needed in the
building.

N RO
OF
“GREEN” Buildings will also be implemented in certain areas. These buildings are buildings that operates energy efficiently, conserves water, a comfortable, safe and healthy home, and is a durable and maintainable home with
very minimal environmental impacts.
