Cool Cities: Task 6


The world is going forward in a unbelievable way , were everyone want to have a standard life style. However this issue made the planet face a global warning by increasing the amount of CO2. World now planning for a new cities which called “Cool Cities” will it work in UAE. I am going to argue about the cool cities, whether I agree or disagree with this idea.

The cool city is a wonderful project which helps us to reduce the pollution, because people will be using less energy in these cities. However the life style will be effected by this cities. Were people have to use more public transport and there will be less energy to use. Leaving behind harmful gases and using clean energy which don’t cause problems to anyone (Cavanaugh).
However the population of the country is way too high and these cities can only hold 50 thousand people, what will be the population of the world in future. Next, cool cities need 22 billion dollar to build one, so countries with higher population will need lots of cool cities which will cost them trillions of money (Cheung).

The lifestyle need little change to better from worse and stop wasting lots of energy by changing our routine of life. We don’t need these cities to reduce to save our world because if we can’t change our habit no matter what we do to save our planet it useless.

In conclusion, these cities will be awesome idea if it was cheaper, provide suitable lifestyle for people, if had a better climate in UAE. However not everyone can afford living in these cool cities and it’s need lots of money so better think of a solution to reduce CO2. By doing recycle and recreate stuff.
