As Urban Populations Increase, Cities Adapt Circular Practices

Stats: 1/2 the world’s population lives in cities. By 2050, that number will increase to 2/3. The world’s cities emit more than 70% of carbon emissions.

Participating Cities: Berlin, Chicago, Copenhagen, and New York 

Changes for Circular Cities:

• Green roofing and facades to prevent oil, pesticides, and animal waste from polluting waterways
• Recycling storm water
• Green building design to save energy
