it will then progress pop costs for everyone who wants to know more about this topic. second son of about this story is beyond the headline world in progress. the w cuts cost the how is housing changing? how is mobility changing? will cross really fly. all cities flows in the clouds or even in space. there's no shortage of inspiring exciting visions of cities, of this cute but the reality is sobering. traffic hills climate change. many cities today are in crisis. we need solutions. the

transportation issues are nothing new. if you think of just the modes of transportation throughout history, this going from a, you know, a horse and buggy to rail, to ocean going, bass olsteen liners, air ships. so there's always been something new to try out that would solve some of the problems of the old and each one of those new things has introduced its own a new problems. today's transportation mix is no exception. the biggest problem is that roughly a quarter of global energy related carbon emissions are linked to transport. but that's just one of many. many people have the experience of being stuck in traffic, and of course people don't like that. and there's also the high cost of kind of owning a vehicle if you have to do that in order to get around. and unfortunately,

you know, in many places, transit services are not always the most accessible. the most efficient, even the most affordable traffic jams are so universally hated that there's a bunch of jokes and moves, little wonder that tech trains jumped onto the transit bandwagon. big tech has reshape the economy and flashy hype, fuel presentation, no matter what their substance were. key and so instead of kind of really mundane things like invest in bosses and uh, you know, think about how we distribute st space and maybe make some cycle lanes. it sounds a lot more attractive. this a, all the cars are going to start driving themselves and we're going to make this new tunnel system for transportation and we're going to have flying cars. finally, investors and media, laptop, high tech, exciting, new transit projects. and the company you saw potential to people spend loads on transit in the us. for instance, 16 percent of household spending goes to transportation. second only to house. and

while investors currently only have promises not results to go on, it hasn't stopped them. for example, you on most of the boring company name that because they bore tunnels, get it, picked up $675000000.00 in private capital. in 2022. local governments have also jumped on board. musk announced deals, promising to build underground tunnels for high speed travel in chicago and fort lauderdale in 2018 in 2021. the either have been built so the high train is rolling, the venture capital is flowing. everything is fine and dandy to a tech companies have to deliver on their spectacular promises. one of the most glaring examples of hyperlinks, a high speed above ground vacuum to popularized by musk in 2013 and pursued by a number of firms billionaire richard branson, the owner of virgin, also got in on the phone. in 2017 miss virgin hyper lupe announced plans to build

over ground vacuum tubes that would hurdle people at 670 miles an hour across the us india in the middle east. what the closest these came to materializing was a single crude test in 2020, which reached about 100 miles an hour. far less than promised. costs were nearly $10.00 times higher, and the test drive transported just to passengers instead of the promise $28.00, and deterred by the failure of his above ground travel project, musk optic to go underground with his boring company. first, the pledge to dig elaborate systems of tunnels under cities were autonomously dripping pods. with 16 passengers would sit around with ease. that became a pledge to develop a system of so called skates, which would sweep electric cars across town at speeds of up to 130 miles an hour, which became a one way tunnel to drive the test was through at about 40 miles an hour called the lute which at least exist, you sold the systems to

a bunch of cities around the united states, and in most cases they have not materialized. and then the only place where, where it has, which is las vegas, it's a short tunnel that connects up the convention center. and it's mainly just and it's an attraction for teslas. you know, it's a way to sell it as low as it's not really affecting traffic. it's not really solving transportation problems. it's really, i call it a disney land ride for tesla fed. western billionaires aren't the only ones with techs. that sounds more impressive than it looks. china is autonomous, real rapid transit. that's got an hype for being a cheaper alternative to standard trends, and it has been tested in guitar and australia. it's a quote unquote, trackless prem system that traverse has roads and has a driver despite being called autonomy. that's right. pretty much a bust. looks kind of cool, but not a transit revolution. if it feels like we're seeing a pattern here, it's because lots of these could be defined as got just bonds,

the transit term for an exciting new technology that's actually less useful than what it's meant to replace. and then there is the holy grail of sy fy playing cars . some companies like jo be, are working on what they call electric vertical takeoff and landing cubicles or flying taxes. even the biggest luddites have to admit that these are cool, though they look more like fancy helicopters and flying cars. toby hopes to launch these fully electric vehicles in 2025. they should have a range of 150 miles per job expects the average trip to be around $25.00, meaning flying taxis would compliments not replace existing transport networks if and when these tech solutions materialize, they often bring with them their own sort of regulatory costs and safety challenges or fail to solve some of the biggest translators, ideally, mass transit should serve the masses. that means recognizing it as

a public good. something flashy private innovation distracts from. if we wanted to do it, we could have been making investments in transit service and investments into like plenty of this structure and doing, you know, other things in order to address these issues. instead of waiting for the tech industry to create solutions that were never actually going to solve anything in the 1st place. practical transits, solutions that encourage people to ditch private cars are often a bit boring. while the electric buses popping up all over the world are cool. there are no flying cars. and transit researchers might be the only people on the planet who think the bikes are sexy. i have one right here in the background to tell i get the toward the they're pretty under stated, they're easy to maintain low cost. they enable quicker and longer bike trips without the cost of showing up sway or tired likes and busses are great local transit solutions. but what makes them really

shine is dedicated lanes like bogota is bus. expressway is where amsterdam so expensive network of bike paths. and there's always room for innovation, like emitting where cable cars help traverse densely built steep terrain. so it will take them much more than flashing animations to solve our traffic problems. let alone curb transits, climate impact, deep billions and venture capital and sheep slip attention. these tech solutions garner would probably be better invested in truly boring, but more efficient real solutions. the b o 3 and capital vienna is creating a completely new district z h dot bestbuy is being constructed on a former air field on the outskirts of town. 27000 people are to live here one day . it's a testing ground for sustainable housing and living. the subway was built long

before the 1st house was erected. it only takes 15 minutes to get from the center of the capital to vienna's newest district. it's meant to be car free, so bikes can be rented everywhere, free of charge. and 7 very important aspect was the connection to public transport. right from the beginning, the 1st step was excavating the late, and then the subway was built. the idea was that people knew from the stop, they could travel here using public transport instead of it 1st taking that call and then having to rely on that behavior and getting used to taking this of what i figured out on the, on the construction of the study acetone is being supported by several research teams. magdalena, group lima and slowly and cooling out are investigating in a mobile lab how the residents as they should travel. they get the data from an app, which i also download directly onto my cell phone. for the next few days, it will automatically toward all the routes that my camera team and i take plus

info about the means of transport used and our c o 2 consumption. the young researchers also go from house to house to distribute questionnaires. we need to know what the state is co is and monitor it continuously because there are changes in individual behavior and civil tenuously fish that spun is changing as well. so it's still under construction. i know it's one that build, so there's still potential for the district to use new info for the next construction phase for the mix and follow up on the mobile lab shares. it's data with anyone who's interested companies, city planners, and the residents themselves. the data is especially important for the planning phase. the new district is meant to learn from its mistakes. to begin with, a sort of you said to 1st it was tolerated that you parked your car in front of the door just in order to make your move easier. but that behavior quickly became

established and turned into a habit to give and what it was later penalized. there was a big fuss, although it was never planned. that parking would be allowed there. let's get positive. so one of the things we've learned is to work with the development company to make sure that these things are taken into account in the newly built areas. billing 60 the ball overs each that i spend there are multi story parking houses which are very well camouflage. but they're never closer than the next public transport stuff. so that it's not more attractive to take the car. my camera team and i are on board. we load 70 kilos of equipment into a cargo bike. quote, homestead isn't the only one of the planners as they start us. then he's also one of the longest residents. your hospital has to click is, isn't it 1st glance, it's nothing special leading to all the initial development is pretty much just

concrete construction with a few exceptions about something that has to go. but the sustainable aspect is it all comes from the lake and the lake didn't exist. it was excavated. the only thing in the environmental impact statement, it was stipulated that everyone driving in here was over a certain number of trucks a day would have to pay at all. and then so that made the concrete so expensive homes that it was cheaper to produce it on the site because it's what the plan we built here and then from and then they told me that the, so the 1st phase of they started asp. around was virtually borne out of the lake and seeing people in coming from the artificial lake is the center of the neighborhood. the whole district is built slightly sloping towards it so that all the rain water collect stare. in addition is fed by the ground water flow of the danube river. the star spun is home to some unique examples of sustainable architecture. at 24 stories and 84 meters high. the whole ho is the world. second

tallest wouldn't skyscraper. and office building is under construction here that doesn't need central heating or air conditioning. extremely sick, brick walls make it possible the else composite, but not in the 1st phase sustainability. it was not the big issue on the residential development was the main concern. and we didn't even realize that was a key to sustainability. the thing is that turned out to be the case when the 1st thing started to work, we thought, wow, that worked. now we can take it a step further. goals to then came social change when suddenly in society and in politics, the doors were opening too early on. we argued about things like planting big trees and ended up planning small ones. now it's common front of you that the stunt is built on spongy ground under the trees and plants. and there's a layer of gravel, 80 centimeters that the gaps are filled with the substrate of sand, compost, and bio chart which serves to functions. it can store water and also release

nutrients with many residents, find the gravel beds around the young trees to drop various initiatives are trying to make them more attractive, but it's not all that easy. the most of us about to mean i'm home to applied the city of vienna for the tenant in order to plant vegetation. and then you have to prove that you will take home this responsibility on that. you will take care of it regularly. so piece of 80 may say 5 them too much such a permit can take up to 3 months for large scale projects, like the communal garden of heidi mac was gartner's association. you need even more patients with the joy of being able to harvest fruit and vegetables makes up for the toil. oh, what an abundant nature blocked. well

yeah i'm this is, yeah. and they have different fabulous name that called about the i'm calling you call me this of what gets grown. and when in the 1000 square meters of garden is a collective decision, vegetable gardens, sustainable architecture, good, public transport, access, none of this comes cheap. another core principle of the stuff is social diversity. the sale of real estate within the project to private investors, health funds, social housing, and public developments. here, sustainability also makes economic sense. vast amounts of data are collected to ensure an optimized energy supply. europe's largest ever energy research project which employs over $200.00 people is underway ins each. that as found sensors are installed all over the district. they record in real time,

how much energy each building consumes and how much they produces as it cannot be. this particular building is almost not 0 to use is just a little more electricity than it produces as a pulled up. see if i'm talk. next door is an energy plus building. it produces more electricity than it consumes. that's like a suspended. so say i'm going to go one step further, take a building that requires a lot of cool but, and yet it will also have a lot of waste heat. how does that warm energy is released into the atmosphere and that's problematic for the surrounding city. it's more efficient and intelligent to make the waste heat available to the neighboring delta gamma enough puckett by the baggage that identifying and solving problems together. the stuff is all about community. that's the message i keep hearing. we're on our way to vienna's newest mind about or municipal building a social housing concept dating back to the 19 twenty's kind of hard to know seen

on think you can still read on the buildings that they were finance from the revenues of the residential construction tax that was a tax on luxury goods, automobiles service person as entertainment, such as offering theater and so long ago. so um the out, the, i take the oldest was taxed on the funds. we're used to finance the municipal building projects organ. uh, do you mind developing fiancee of the tax no longer exist, but while other cities in europe are struggling with far willing rents and real estate, speculation over half of vienna's housing market is city owned. 4000 new subsidize homes are in the pipeline. the city already owns 220000 apartments. like these 25 percent of vienna's residents live in municipal housing. idle high. are you putting down or com? yes. but that great things as well as just some estimate 5 off when i 1st came here, it felt very syfy and utopian from top to bottom. i expected to see flying cars on

such things for food is different this time. so what i think is great is that the neighborhood management that they organize lots of projects for the vase that residents and it makes you feel very at home, isn't it native? i'm jaime. is the start as utopian as it seems. is this green urban development project community living? it's best. the last stop on my visit to vienna is an intergenerational apartment block. the apartments are small, but they are also communal spaces and a roof garden. and here to a strong sense of community. not how long is this within sustainable living? because we borrowed things from each other and then the people ask for instance, hey, can i bore you? i n 2 and i just have my grandson visiting this. and so i needed a called

a baby rocha and a hi to help us understand. i was able to borrow everything so that was great. getting yeah, i read both women move to the start. i spend from much bigger apartments in the inner city. i move neither have ever regretted a coal safari is the highest of how many sports grounds that all under and around the train tracks the sewage. what does it say? and that's always in use p as a throughout the day, just until late in the evening. speed and there's always lost a there's always something happen now. do you see t v who is vibrant? makes me happy. ben did give me 2nd for me to see all the buildings in the 1st construction phase. had been state subsidized, which is why so many young families live here. the next development phase will see the construction of privately finance departments, marks interest houses they shed at aspen is a work in progress and learning,

evolving and flourishing the dynamic economy and a rapidly expanding consumer market. india is an emerging global powerhouse, many highly skilled young indians who moved abroad, returning home to be part of the other guys all very good morning. uh, welcome to our designs. a team meeting at holland mobility, a startup headquartered in hyderabad, south india, home to almost 7000000 people. c e o is 29 year old, 3 count ready. he studied in italy and spain, but after gaining a doctorate chose to return to india. i haven't been in the creative job, in fact, like it's a, it's a high being job that i can be happy to set it on there. but what will drive me

here to move is that the impact that i can create with the experience that i have. and the biggest problem that i can find. the company's fleet of over $2500.00 electric vehicles are rented out to customer neighborhoods of money. such as to live ray people 3 years ago, ready chose to launch his business in india because he was confident there was a huge demand for electric mobility solutions. whenever you're dealing with 1400000 population here and that population needs different types of solutions, and that's the benefit anyone would get on top of it. and the young generation that the india has. and that is what is going to drive the whole and make the simple one of the superpowers i'll get. the indian economy is currently seeing unparalleled growth. it said to overtake germany and japan, within the next 4 years, the startups must rooming across the country, prove that this is boom, time for india. when we saw during the 2020 novel, we thought it would be

a 2 way. cuz right on that same year we'd scale it up between the and then the next 5 years with a 10200 weight because from data we scale or do i need to pause in our numbers. we picked up our 1st round of investment last year with the investment we do for them to put sometimes. the vehicles based ride sharing company has already raised $1000000.00 in funding and ready now overseas a team of 80 people. many of them originally come from small towns and villages such as mechanics for of on coma. it goes to most of what if i'm learning a lot in my village, i always used to just being given orders, but here everything is explained. there's opportunity to develop and i've already been taught so much that would never have happened in my village. there's a world of difference between the city and where i grow out because he wants to show his boss where he comes from there on a visit to. so you to poor a small town with a population of 4000 outside hyderabad,

originally travel and hadn't wanted to leave his family on his home. but he knew his prospect would be better in the city. and the one ready goes on before i went to hyderabad to become a mechanic. i wanted to start up my own business here, my home town, connecticut. oh no. i wanted to open a small garage, but it wasn't possible. no one took me seriously. they quibbled over everything and was completely demoralized. i know where to go to most of the miles on the on the rapid technological progress underway in the cities has passed by much of rural india, the crew morris lou from farming making around 150 euro is a month for evans. mother says that politicians aren't interested in the plight of townsend villages, like site up port st. louis, i'm not in here ever changes. everything is the way is always being the government promised that things would improve button, nothing happened. even people with an education comp find work that pays a decent wage. and that's why my son moved to the city on busier lane. this is not

a world that ready is familiar with, but 2 thirds of india is population of over a 1000000000 live in rural areas. and there's growing awareness that they need more opportunities. it can be moving to the cities, walking dead and putting that lifestyle of what, what it can be and to achieve the dreams that they have in their heads. right? so i would say that is still a lot of god that needs to be full for. so that's where the t hubs center in hyderabad comes in. it's a project financed by the state that advises and supports start ups like readies from day one. hello sir. good morning. how are you all good, so thanks a lot. anthony. a nice t hubs. chief operations officer welcomes young entrepreneurs interest in rule india. i'm going to get moving on this list. anybody is moving out there are. so there are start. that's what i actually solving for real problems for non metro

problems. but i had 3 dialed water, send me up and video been problems. right. so, um, i think yes, there are a lot of started withholding for those problems as well. and the taking the solutions out into the mazda of here in hyderabad, groundbreaking, new technology such as artificial intelligence is welcomed. while there are currently just over 300 start ups working in the innovation center, this number is set to rise to more than 20000 in the next 5 years. entrepreneur is like ready predict that india will soon be an economic superpower. it's not too far to get the, i don't seem to go to buy layoff in the us type for heights above or even better tag or to have a unique liquid medicine for the us as and then comparing to anyone else and hide the bodies in that range and in the a will be in that place, may have, you know, it's going to be a center point of innovation. india is population and economy are growing. and so is the confidence of its vast population.
