| Abstract |
We all live in cities. As we head into the future, how we adapt to the needs of expanding cities will have a huge impact on their livability. Food, land use, housing, energy, waste - how we tackle these issues will determine whether our cities evolve, or whether they decline. In a new installment of Suzuki Diaries, David and his daughter Sarika set out to discover whether some of Canada's biggest cities are ready for the challenges of the future. |
