Panel: Getting to Net Zero | Keefe Harrison, Signe Kongebro, Steven Pedigo, Colleen Litkenhaus Tague
Cities around the world are making commitments to cleaner, more resilient and regenerative communities. That means taking a hard look at waste-from food waste to construction, from water to plastics, etc. Cities that effectively reduce waste can cut emissions by upwards of 20%.
Don't miss this deep discussion with plenty of actionable ideas from this all-star panel.

    Don't worry about culture. There is no culture in America. Don't you see the big selling points right now? This show was put up. It's a little old. But what do you think? Millions of illegal aliens criminals from Venezuelan gangs.. And you're allowed to steal up to $1,000.. It's funny you guys are building this stuff but the 1% is ready to strike like a snake. Sounds like you guys have not seen the Walt Disney movie. The hunger games. It is entertaining but it doesn't really tell you anything. It's just showing you the end result but that is the biggest Master plant City.. In fact, they mentioned a two-second thing about it in Orlando, but it was the 1%ers making a joke at the American people not realizing their plans.

  • @dannys-beverage-world
    @dannys-beverage-world День тому

    You guys need to go to Vietnam. Ho ann.. That is an ancient over 3,000-year-old City with natural growth. You do not realize that corporations messed up City planning. Go look at any City prior to the birth of corporations. They're more livable and people love them. Unless you are talking about a mining City that's only purpose was to mine metals.. there are many ancient cities that are selling operation before automobiles. That's why they are so quaint and nice and people love them. Don't forget your building the corporate nightmare of the future. That is where your success lies.

  • @dannys-beverage-world
    @dannys-beverage-world День тому

    I know Harvard university's plans for North America. You guys don't understand what is going on. I should work for your firm head of North America.. You have to be focusing more on access roads. Hijackings security some amenities within these corporate cities. You guys are just the builders. You really don't understand the plans. You're not even mentioning the most important projects that are going on right now. Even you guys don't understand the grand plan.. I could make you a lot of money because you would start building it the way it is planned because there's a lot more projects already finished and some that will be completed over the next 10 years. They're actually in the movies such as the science fiction, The hunger games. That movie is based 15 years in the future of one of the largest private corporate cities with its own railroad line. The girl on the train is really coming from the Orlando area out to the middle of nowhere. It does not tell you that but I know Florida. Well, I'm from California. I know where there's another one right near Marina del Rey.. The rich people will pick these up for nothing. People have no idea where they are buying when people start buying again in about 8 years from now. The problem is or they will buy the property. Be worth nothing. Very few stores if any. And no police department to protect you only in the private corporate cities. You will live in peace behind the fences and shop and walk your dog but not outside the gates.. foreign countries. What you guys are talking about is a little different not the same thing.

    I love the horse racing track idea. A little stupid but you could put a supercar track or super motorcycle track. Everybody has those toys. They would love to live in there.. And there's a lot more of those people with money than people that have horses. Sure, there are tons of millionaires of horses but there are very few compared to sports, car owners and super bike owners. That is a great concept.. have to think about walls. The filter out the noise pointed off walls upwards so it is not too loud but you'd have to sound proof. The houses is another way which is not difficult. Just adds more building cost which is good for builders.

  • @dannys-beverage-world
    @dannys-beverage-world День тому

    It's so funny these edge cities are all over the United States. Americans have no idea what is planned.. a handful of rich people know they're letting everyone else finance and build them in these areas.. And they know where to buy. When this collapse is just around the corner they will pick them up for free practically.. let everyone else build and finance them.. but you have to understand the game plan. Sounds like you guys are involved.. but you don't understand the heist.

  • @dannys-beverage-world

    Mad ideas.. like the one that failed in Dubai with the islands that are completely vacant and falling back into the ocean. Now that idea was beyond stupid.

  • @dannys-beverage-world
    @dannys-beverage-world День тому

    It is funny you guys are the only ones using the correct terminology edge City.. but it's a lot simpler than you're explaining. Cities collapse. No police, no city councils. Private cities. They're not really for the millennials. They're for anyone that can live in a city that is a private corporation. These cities are only in the United States.. It will be like living in the book 1984 when they are complete.. The way you guys talk it's like you were taught about it.. but you really don't know what the end result is. You guys are old. Not saying it in a bad way. Seems like you were trained to talk about and introduce something that you do not understand the end result or why? I have left the US for this very reason?.. America has no culture and what you guys are talking about is the new America. Americans have no idea.

  • @dannys-beverage-world
    @dannys-beverage-world День тому

    You guys did not mention The hunger games City in the Walt Disney movie. That is Walt Disney's third private city. It has a rail line and its own self-contained power. It has a rail line leading to it just like in the movie. And Disney has another one that has not been started in Palm desert.. when this real estate crash comes, 99.9% of Americans have no idea what you guys have planned.. You will pick the property up on the cheap. A lot of the cities are sitting in plain sight but they're ready for the fences to go up. No in or out to the shopping center unless you live inside or you have a friend that invites you in no police departments in the old cities. Third world like India. You can live with the animals outside the fences just like The hunger games in the movie.

    So once the 15 min district is set up, and I want to open a business there but all the “certified” business types are filled...no more space for me, where do I set up? And if a business fails,it would need to be replaced by exactly the same business type...that just failed! If I live in one district but work in another, is that allowed or will I need to move? This will be an absolute nightmare if it happens. It’s like Communism/Socialism/Maoism/Marxism, sounds like a great idea, but in practice it just can’t work without oppression and the elimination of freedom and liberty. Count me out! And please stop with the “zero carbon” bulls#@t, 80% of earthlings (6.1 billion people) are actively building coal, oil and gas infrastructure your plan will only result in punishing citizens and limiting their freedoms with no upside.

    He mentions density, does that mean the only way they will be able to fit the big populations into these 15min neighbourhoods is to cram people into high rise Towers so they will no longer ever own a family home. After all the urban sprawl means they can't cope with the number of people they have now. They can't even build more hospitals which most cities need. They wont be wanting to spend money on more hospitals in 15min.cities either. That's just a carrot to.make people agree. When the politicians won't spend the money on these things now Will the government and globalist corporations own all these new rental high Rises. Will we end up homeless if we dont follow government dictates,? Like agreeing to put endless unsafe vaccines into babies and young children
