FUTURE CITY:
GREEN CITY
ORAL 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

ISM
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:

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.

“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.
