Check out this video titled Infrastructure In An Ecological Age of a theoretical Manchester, England after it has undergone a sustainability overhaul. The video was made by engineering firm Arup and shows how light rail, streetcars, and high speed rail will work to create pockets of density, how plentiful trees, landscaping, and green roofs will make city living more like garden living, and how other ideas from increasing local food and power production to making the bus more efficient will green the cities of tomorrow.
