"Widespread interest in Sharing Cities makes perfect sense. In 1800 only
3% of the world's population lived in cities. This figure has climbed to
50% today, and the global urban population is projected to reach around
70% by 2050. We are clearly living through the urban century and human
civilization will either make it or break it in cities. The need to
develop innovative thinking to address the climate crisis, resource
constraints, inequality, and energy descent is greater now than ever."

Sounds good.  Via Muse.

Share and enjoy,
