EDGE, THE: ENVIRONMENT - BUILDING THE FUTURE (CITIES AND POLLUTION)
The global population is predicted to rise by a third in the next fifty years, to 9 billion people. Half the world already lives in urban areas; so it's clear we'll need twice as many cities as we have. However, our cities consume a staggering 75% of resources and discharge 75% of all waste. Pollution is causing illness, global warming, extreme weather, and destroying ozone; something must change. This program examines the cutting-edge achievements being made in the Green Technology Revolution and explores the pioneering work now being developed to help society strike a practical balance between exploitation and conservation to create the sustainable city of the future
