MASDAR CITY

Masdar City is a "green city", situated in Abu Dhabi and is currently under construction.
It was designed by Norman Foster and they are actually trying to create the first completely carbon and waste free city!

"Aspiring to be one of the most sustainable cities in the world, approximately 6km2 Masdar City is an emerging global clean-technology cluster that places its resident companies in the heart of the global renewable energy and cleantech industry. Situated 17km from downtown Abu Dhabi, Masdar City is a high-density, pedestrian-friendly development where current and future renewable energy and clean technologies are showcased, marketed, researched, developed, tested and implemented.

 The city, which at full build out will house 40,000 residents and hundreds of businesses, will integrate the full range of renewable energy and sustainability technologies, across a living and working community."

I know it all looks really futuristic but if you check out their web page you can see that they have actually built a lot of this and the "cars" as well.


Enjoy!
