Sustainable Cities

In 2008, half of the Earth’s population will live in urban areas, marking the first time in history that humans are an urban species.

Worldwatch’s State of the World 2007: Our Urban Future examines changes in the ways cities are managed, built, and lived in that could tip the balance towards a healthier and more peaceful urban future.

Here are some Offsets4Life™ ideas that may work for your city:

  • Lead by example, green your city, its conferences, seminars, workshops, or events
  • Look up your electricity consumption, calculate your CO2 emissions and convert them into things people need
  • Engage your city’s inhabitants; start an Offsets4Life™ tree matching program
  • Add our Global Cooling™ Calculator to your website (planned release: Summer 2008)

Stay ahead of the curve. Measuring, tracking, managing, and reducing your city’s footprint is best — offset the rest.
