They take the concept of a normal city, and develop upon it to create a city that will not hurt the earth in every action.<br />2.) Every city uses ecologically friendly technology in some way or another. For example, our own city has the light rail, which runs off of generated electricity instead of diesel.<br />3.) Technology is being developed to run from more common resources, such as nitrogen, water, air, etc. An example in the United states are windmills. We take advantage of an everyday energy generator, and convert it for other purposes.<br />4.) Personally these technologies are innovative and help be "green", but I believe we are working towards a wrong goal. Instead leaning on the Liberal side, we should work toward constantly improving and exploring other technologies, such as a shuttle that can reach a different planet. Working to limit a gas output is stupid when comparing it to other options we have in science and exploration.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9123329717980057951.post-62003316396948914332014-02-21T11:36:59.296-08:002014-02-21T11:36:59.296-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9123329717980057951.post-2874312765229183092014-02-21T11:29:19.172-08:002014-02-21T11:29:19.172-08:001- The city is based off of a plan to have no over...1- The city is based off of a plan to have no overall affect on the environment, and to use the environment to power and sustain life in their city. It is basically a city that will have no polution, run off of things like solar and wind, and minimal water use. AS well as this, better trash systems help keep waste down and recycling up. <br />2- Here in the United States, Arizona especially, solar power is quite big. Lots of homes in Arizona have them installed and help keep power bills low. <br />3- Again, Solar panels. Solar panels are being worked on immensely all over the united states, especially in the northern and western states. But as well as this, wind is being used. In California, more and more wind mills are being installed in open fields, reducing the states footprint. <br />4- The only thing that my family really takes a large part in is recycling. This helps us organize our waste as well as reduce the amount of products that need to be remade.

They use solar and wind power to power the city, no nuclear, oil, and coal. There will never be smog in that city. They also use a mater of filters and technology which uses as little of water as possible. This allows them to save water in the desert like area they are in. The separation and organization in waste management allows this city to recycle better. This allows better reuses of items. Less waste.<br /><br />2.London put wind turbines in a skyscrapers. Which allowed the skyscraper to produce its own power.<br /><br />3.The U.S. is working on a centimeter thin solar panel. Solar power would decrease in price that could increase the amount of solar panels and the amount of ecological energy.<br /><br />4.This could effect me thru solar power which could get better and the amount of power from coal and oil plants..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9123329717980057951.post-11373657958685125532014-02-20T17:45:49.688-08:002014-02-20T17:45:49.688-08:001.

Now, Masdar city is the most "clean, there are other cities that try to make a difference like Stockholm, Curitiba, and Freiburg. Those cities will not be as clean as Masdar at any time in the future, in my opinion.<br /><br />3. The most you hear about in the U.S. about clean energy is solar panels and electric cars, but there is more technology than that. There is also wind power and hydro power (electricity made from water spinning-up a generator).<br /><br />4. This field of technology is very important and beneficial for everyone on Earth. It helps clean/reduce air pollution making it "easier" to breath and lessens global warming, which can cause lots of destruction and death to our planet.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9123329717980057951.post-76358655531069399002014-02-20T15:23:12.468-08:002014-02-20T15:23:12.468-08:00This is important technologyThis is important technologyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9123329717980057951.post-1010147904656260652014-02-06T20:32:12.587-08:002014-02-06T20:32:12.587-08:001.)The main point of the energy in Masdar city is ...1.)The main point of the energy in Masdar city is that it will save energy and will keep the air clean.<br /><br />2.)Actually people all over the USA are using this kind of energy.

Some of they ways they maintain energy cost, is by utilizing their 40 to 60 megawatt PV solar power plant. <br /><br />2.) Austin Texas was recently awarded with the title of " largest US city to use only renewable energy". They uses lots of wind turbines to collect the energy they need to power the city. But, the citizens do have to pay more for this kind of power.<br /><br />3.) An awesome rising technology is Solar Power. It has been used here in Arizona more so than anywhere else, and because of our hot climate, its one of the best places to utilize it anyways.<br /><br />4.) This technology I believe, WILL be a huge part of our community in the future.

Most cites are obliviously not that and Ecofriendly mainly because it cheap and easy to make pollution than to be clean and nice to the earth. APS and SRP are not that bad SRP uses water power to make energy where as APS uses nuclear tech to make energy but APS's plant is old the tech has gotten cleaner and safer.<br />3.

This city is a fast growing hub for green technologies and businesses, and is based on being a sustainable city in terms of energy production and water consumption.<br /><br />2. While other countries do use green energy, it is nowhere near as effective as Masdar. So few people use solar power here in the US, it's still cheaper to create and distribute non eco-friendly sources of power.<br /><br />3. Wind power, solar panels, and cars that break down water to run on the energy are all either being developed for use in the US or already in use, and hopefully as more and more people become aware about the problems that pollution causes, these technologies will be used more frequently. <br /><br />4.

Other cities in the world that use ecological technologies despite Masdar are Brazil, India, and Germany.<br /><br />3.) Right now the US is using water, a valuable resource. Using our resources wisely will help us fulfill the needs of people, industries, and businesses. While also keeping fish and other aquatic life alive. Across the state these water people have diverse needs and goals we must find a way to share limited supplies.<br /><br />4.)

The technology in the city focus on keeping it as clean as possible, and went from being 1 of the top 10 largest oil companies in the world to now being one of the cleanest cities in the world through the use of renewable resources such as things like solar panels.<br /><br />2.) Some of the cities other than Masdar that focus on staying green are Curitiba, Brazil - Auroville, India - Freiburg, Germany - and Stockholm, Sweden.<br /><br />3.) There are many renewable energy sources that are used in the US, such as Solar, Geothermal, Wind, Biomass, and Hydroelectricity, and there are some places in the US that are set up to get the maximum amount of these types of energy, such as Wind Farms, Geothermal Power Plants, and Solar/Thermal Power Plants.<br /><br />4.) I think that the idea of only using renewable energy sources is a good idea because it provides a good amount of power to people and has no cost to the earth, unlike using things like fossil fuels, which provide energy yet damage the earth and cause several environmental hazards, like acid rain, among other things, so by using renewable energy sources, it would be better for us and the earth rather than using fossil fuels.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9123329717980057951.post-56368849516784378992014-01-28T13:10:35.068-08:002014-01-28T13:10:35.068-08:001) A few of the points I like about Masdar City is...1) A few of the points I like about Masdar City is that they have taken the standard city and made every possible aspect of it as green and as clean as it can be. The water management systems are well regulated and the citizens attempt to use as little water as they can. The power generation systems are all solar and wind. Waste management systems looks for potential use from what is thrown away. Transportation is all electric buses, and cars along with light rails and mostly walking.<br /><br />2) I don't know of many other cities around the world but I do know that my home town of Aurora, IL is producing power with wind turbines and has reformed it's systems to make it more green. The buildings it builds are built to maximize efficiency. But Masdar is by far the most advanced I've seen.<br /><br />3) Having power being generated by solar panels and wind turbines will save the environment and even reduce the cost of power generation.<br /><br />4) Personally I like this field of technology, I like the idea of living more in harmony with nature and not destroying it how it has been.

The city was constructed to have the most minimal economical foot print. They have solar panels, wind mills etc to run all the electricity needed to run the city. They reuse water as many times as possible and if they can't they feed it to the plants. They have zero waste because what they use for packaging is biodegradable.<br /><br />2. The cities that use ecological technologies are Curitiba, Brazil - Auroville, India - Freiburg, Germany and Stockholm, Sweden.<br /><br />3. As of right now the US uses wind mills, solar panels around the country. To further reduce our carbon footprint be would need to be self sustained by not using oil etc. The US reduced the pollution of cars by talking to the manufacturers. <br /><br />4. The world needs to see that earth will not last a long time if they keep polluting it. Everyone should be aware that pollution is a real problem. I would love to live in a no emissions city.
