Build climatesmart infrastructure from "summary" of The Future We Choose by Christiana Figueres,Tom Rivett-Carnac
To ensure a sustainable future for our planet, it is imperative that we prioritize the development of climate-smart infrastructure. This entails building resilient systems that can withstand the impacts of climate change, such as extreme weather events and rising sea levels. By investing in infrastructure that is designed with climate considerations in mind, we can mitigate the risks posed by a changing climate and protect our communities from harm.
Climate-smart infrastructure not only helps us adapt to the realities of a warming world but also enables us to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions. By incorporating renewable energy sources, energy-efficient technologies, and sustainable materials into our infrastructure projects, we can decrease our carbon footprint and move towards a more sustainable future. This shift towards clean and green infrastructure is essential in the fight against climate change.
Furthermore, building climate-smart infrastructure presents an opportunity for economic growth and job creation. By investing in sustainable infrastructure projects, we can stimulate innovation, attract investment, and create new employment opportunities in clean energy, transportation, and construction sectors. This transition towards a low-carbon economy is not only necessary for the health of our planet but also offers economic benefits for our communities.
In order to achieve a climate-smart future, we must work together to prioritize the development of sustainable infrastructure. Governments, businesses, and communities must collaborate to invest in resilient, low-carbon infrastructure projects that will benefit both people and the planet. By building climate-smart infrastructure, we can create a more sustainable, resilient, and prosperous future for all.
