Overpopulation, poverty, security, traffic, pollution, and urban expansion are the major problems facing cities today. The document proposes solutions for a future city, including developing new locations in the sea, air, space, and water to address lack of space from urban expansion. It also suggests improving public transportation systems, increasing green areas, using clean energy, and sensitizing people to pollution to solve issues of traffic, pollution, and sustainability. The envisioned city of the future utilizes innovations like skyscrapers and bridges, regulates deforestation and waste better, and leverages new surveillance and transportation methods to create a greener, safer, and more efficient urban environment.

1. L. How do you envision the city of the
future?
Marco Francisetti

2. Our Cities today – Point of attentions
To think about a futurist city, it is necessary to consider what are currently the biggest problems of
our cities and understand how to solve them: overpopulation, poverty, security, traffic, pollution,
urban expansion, deforestation and many others

3. City of the future: Social problem solutions

Overpopulation
and poverty
Security
Overpopulation, a social
problem in Africa & Asia,
occurs when the number of
people exceeds natural
resources of their area New Locations:
Sea, Air, Space
and water
Improve Security which is the
degree of resistance to, or
protection from, harm, is a
priority for any future city
Resources Saving
& Reutilization

4. City of the future: Traffic & transport solutions
4
Traffic
Issues
Inefficient Public
transport
Traffic congestion, condition of
roads networks characterized
by slower speeds, longer trip
times, is frequent in any city
Public transport is a
shared passenger transport
which is sometime too slow or
overcrowded
Innovative method of
travelling
Invest in new
infrastructures:
Bridge, Streets etc.
Improve the existing
public transport:
New tube lines etc.

5. City of the future: Pollution solutions
5
Air pollution
Other kinds of
pollution
Other relevant problems are
related to the pollution of
water, sound and many
others
Issues
Marco Francisetti
Solutions proposed
Increase green
areas
Use clean energy as
fuel for cars, houses
and public transport
Sensitize people
to use of safe
materials
Improve waste
management &
recycling
Air pollution, spread in all world
cities, is due to use
of particulates, biological
molecules, or other harmful
gases

6. City of the future: Urban expansion solutions
6
Lack of space
Deforestation
Issues
Marco Francisetti
Solutions proposed
Deforestation, necessary for
urbanization, is the
permanent destruction of
forests in order to make the
land available for this
purpose
Since the world population is
growing and concentrating in
urban areas, cities need more
spaces
New Locations:
Sea, Air, Space
and water
Invest in infrastructures:
Skyscrapers etc.
Replant cut trees
