Masdar city ( Opinion )




In my opinion Masdar city is an excellent project because in my vision this city will be a flagship in the future to face the global worming. It's impressive because everything in this city will recycle and the people will not need any nonrenewable energy in this city. Nothing is impossible, I appreciate that UAE government's support this city by money and attract companies to build this city.

Masdar city



Masdar city is the city near to the airport of Abu Dhabi which car-free city, zero-waste and zero-carbon. The government has provided a budget of US$22 billion to build this city. Masdar city provides more than 70,000 jobs to attract people and the government is using the best technology and renewable energy to create a cleaner city. Moreover Masdar Institute of Science and Technology (MIST) will support a group of students and professors to focus on developing the next generation of solutions to the world's growing dependence o fossil fuels. About 1500 houses for business people and 50000 houses for the other people will build in the Masdar city. Also Masdar city will save tons of CO2 by using a solar power.

Renewable energy solutions



Renewable energy is the natural clean sources of energy like the sun and wind. The benefit of renewable energy is reducing the global worming and it can replace the nonrenewable energy. We can get the electricity by using modern wind turbines and solar cell.

Energy Efficiency Solutions



Energy efficiency means using less energy by using a better technology to generate the power for the city. By reducing energy we can save energy and reduce the global worming. The solution to make new building more energy efficient is designing building with a high quality of standards. By developing lighting, heating, cooling, and other operations the energy of existing buildings will be reduced. Another solution to get energy and save money is replacing the traditional lights with a light emitting diode (LED) bulbs. Also the government can support the energy efficiency project by using the money from the raising cost on consumer energy bills. Other solution we can produce both electricity and steam by using combined heat and power systems.

Green Vehicle Solutions



Transportation is the main source to increase the global worming. For example old buses pollute the air by smell of black smoke. On the other hand governments buy vehicles to provide the taxpayer services. There are many solutions to solve these problems. First governments can reduce the air pollution and save their money by greening their fleets with hybrid gaselectric or gallon of gas. Second they can also encourage people to buy hybrid vehicles with facilities such as free parking and low taxes. Third they can change the old buses with new buses work with hybrid-electric diesel or natural gas which are friendlier with environment

Cool cities


Cool city is the place where you find three qualities on it cleaner vehicles, energy efficiency, and renewable energy. It is the main solution to stop the global worming. Moreover it's a great idea to change our resource from nonrenewable energy to renewable and depend on it. Also it saves taxpayer and makes our life healthier than ever. By taking an effective actions to build cool cities will be an injection to stop the global worming.
