The waste of Covid-19
Cities and Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Cities are blamed for the majority of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. So too are more affluent, highly urbanised countries. If all production- and consumption-based emissions that result from lifestyle and purchasing habits are included, urban residents and their associated affluence likely account for more than 80 per cent of the world’s GHG emissions. Attribution of GHG emissions should be refined. Apportioning responsibility can be misguided, …
Population predictions for the world’s largest cities in the 21st century
We project populations to 2100 for the world’s larger cities. Three socioeconomic scenarios with various levels of sustainability and global cooperation are evaluated, and individual “best fit” projections made for each city using global urbanization forecasts. In 2010, 757 million people resided in the 101 largest cities – 11 per cent of the world’s population. By the end of the century, world population is projected to range from 6.9 billion to…
An urban approach to planetary boundaries
Peak Waste
Population and per capita gross domestic product (GDP) projections are used to estimate total global municipal solid waste (MSW) generation over the twenty‐first century. Some projections for global population suggest that it will peak this century. Waste generation rates per capita generally increase with affluence, although in the most affluent countries there is also a trend toward dematerialization. The confluence of these factors means that …
What a Waste
Solid waste management is the one thing \n just about every city government provides for its residents. \n While service levels, environmental impacts and costs vary \n dramatically, solid waste management is arguably the most \n important municipal service and serves as a prerequisite for \n other municipal action. As the world hurtles toward its \n urban future, the amount of municipal solid waste (MSW), one \n of the most important by-products…
