The public buildings are placed in the center of the city for easy access.
Green roofs insulate and decorate the buildings.
11. There is a lot of green in our G.E.T.
A waterfront park with a unique character.
A metropolitan park with areas for culture,
sports and recreational activities.
Small parks and open spaces all over the city.
Green suburban.
12. Biological cleaning of the waste water.

13. A highway around the city which is connected with the airport, the
railway station and the port.
14. A G.E.T. requires active, responsible citizens with knowledge and
ecological conscience.
