2. In the future, civilization will be forced to
research and develop alternative energy
sources for the city.
3. Our current rate of fossil fuel usage will lead to an
energy crisis this century.
In order to survive the energy crisis many companies
of the city in the energy industry are inventing new
ways to extract energy from renewable sources.

4. Very fast mass transportations
760mph trains
5. Environmental friendly living styles

6. One of the greatest conundrums facing the city is
how to sustain our ever-growing need for energy
without overwhelming the planet with toxics and
climate change.
There’s scarcely an aspect of modern life that
doesn’t require external energy inputs.
From agriculture and industry to transportation,
communication, heating, cooling and light, basic
processes of the industrialized world would grind
to a halt without a constant feed of electricity or a
liquid fuel like gasoline or diesel.
7. Another share of our energy comes from
nuclear reactors, which impose on society the
risk of devastating radioactive accidents as well
as the unmet challenge of perpetual storage of
radioactive wastes.
8. Yet there are sources of energy that are relatively
clean, largely free of climate change gases, and for
practical purposes inexhaustible.
We need to answer these questions:
Is that really true? Do clean safe renewable energy
sources offer a real solution to our energy-related
problems? Are these technologies viable? How
much energy do they supply? How much energy
could they supply, if we were to invest more
heavily in them?
