In Toyama, Japan has actively adopted hydroelectric power generation to make use of its abundant water resources. Its total generation capacity, including electricity from 29 small hydropower plants across the prefecture, corresponds to approximately 10 percent of all hydropower generated in Japan.

Toyama City also has set the goal of becoming an environmentally friendly city. With an eye toward building a compact metropolis, it has been encouraging residents to settle in the downtown area, constructing a light rail transit (LRT) network in the central city district and preparing a number of bicycle rental stations to step away from a car-oriented society.

Besides that, Toyama comprises a wide range of mountains, Toyama Bay and a number of large plains. In particular, the Toyama Plain, in which Toyama City is located, connects the 3,000-meter-high (9,842 ft) peaks of the Tateyama Mountain Range to the 1,000-meter (3,281 ft) depth of Toyama Bay. The elevation difference of 4,000 meters (13,123 ft) nurtures a number of unique species of plants, animals and marine life. The intermediate areas between alpine range and plains are covered with rich, primeval forests, and Toyama prefecture is ranked as having the highest proportion of natural vegetation on Japan's main island.

Green Environment in Germany .

Germany decides to do a drastic policy reversal that witnessing Germany as to stop its nuclear power plants production and operation by 2022. It focuses on growing the awareness that any economic growth needs to respect man and nature. The best example is the country's northern port city of Hamburg. Hamburg greatest achievement is when the world announced it as European Green Capital 2011 for its impressive transformation. The city is built after the latest energy standards and requirements. Some of the buildings rely on solar power. Even the shops and schools are close to each other and the residents just have to ride a boat or walk to go there.

Half of the city almost doesn't have any car and they replace it with underground stations and lots of public transports such as public boats. Most of the residents using the bicycles or walk to their destinations. They use intelligent energies like solar, geothermal and biomass as an alternative to replace the power system. The project that involved the renovation of that city is a kind of benchmark for sustainable architecture. However, it is quite expensive to be working on because it needs a lot of investments. But Merlin Koene, Director of Unilever said the cost is worth it because all the hard work will be paid off in long-term.
Hamburg is aiming to be Co2 reduction port because they already one foot ahead. They use energy from renewable sources.

Green City, Clean Waters: Philadelphia’s 21st Century Green Stormwater Infrastructure Program.
Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter gave the green light to explore reverting from "gray," or traditional stormwater management infrastructure, to "green" or sustainable infrastructure that mimics the natural water cycle. In 2011, Philadelphia reached an agreement with the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection and the U.S. EPA to explore a largely green stormwater management infrastructure plan to reduce sewage overflows. As a result, an ambitious and comprehensive attempt to overhaul stormwater infrastructure was developed. Green City, Clean Waters (GCCW) has not only made Philadelphia the first city in the U.S. to meet both state and federal water quality mandates through green interventions, but it will also save the city an estimated $6.5 billion in construction costs over building new pipes.

Green Growth in India

According to Minister for environment, Forests & Climate Change, Prakash Jayadekar   green growth as to be sustainable and that is vision of India. Green growth implies environmental sustainability, more energy efficiency, reducing energy intensity, and decreasing emissions intensity. The growth process involves reducing emission, reducing energy consumption, and also creating more greens and creating new carbon stocks and therefore carbon sinks while growing in a balanced manner. Furthermore, every growth will require some destruction in sustainable way, if cut a single tree, grow more five trees and take care of the natural more robustly. For example, in Delhi Metro in every station more plantation. People are starting to adopting by finding ways such as how save water, save energy, how to utilize it more efficiently and how to not pollute. On other hand, taking citizens along and interacted with many were working in NGOs who working in the field of environment and give them studies. India being the part of larges networks.

The Sustainable City of the Future: Copenhagen, Denmark

Copenhagen aims to become the first carbon neutral capital city in the world by 2025. Carbon neutral means creating more renewable energy than the dirty energy a city uses, achieving a net zero between the two. One of the solutions implemented in Copenhagen to cut down carbon emission is bicycle infrastructure. 62% of the Copenhageners use bike for daily transportation. In the last 10 years, the city has invested nearly $300 million in improving biking infrastructure. More than 5 times the amount of bikes than the cars are in the city. Copenhagen has also totally transformed their water ways too. It was a completely polluted harbour few decades ago, and now the harbor is very clean and harbour bath is also available where people could have a swim. However, Copenhagen’s focus now is on the energy use. It makes up about 80% of their carbon neutral plan. The city uses a district heating system. It works by using a network of pipes, to capture left over heat from electricity production then delivers that heat to homes across the city. 99% of all households in Copenhagen are linked to their very efficient district heating system. Copenhagen also introduces district cooling where they take the cold out of the water in the harbour and distribute cold in pipes beside the heating pipes so they can reduce temperature in buildings. It can reduce electricity use for cooling down the building about 70%.

How does China achieve sustainable development?

Humans and nature live together. For China, establishing an ecological civilization is a fundamental strategy in achieving sustainable development. Every major city in China lies on a river. However, in 2013, studies revealed a shocking statistic that China’s ten biggest waterways were polluted for over half of their combined length. Of all China’s rivers, the one that gives rise to the greatest concern is their Mother River, known as the ‘Yangtze River’. President Xi has visited the river numerous times. He has called for a major effort to protect it and for a ban on large-scale construction along its course. Insisting on ecology first and green development, the development path of the Yangtze Economic Belt is becoming clear. Today, the Yangtze River is generally in good condition. The water quality of the Yellow River, and two other key waterways, Heilongjiang River and Nenjiang River, has been improving.

Furthermore, the Three-North Shelter Forest Program has been a great success in global ecosystem governance. Returning the Grain Plots to Forestry Project has created more than 30 million hectares of forests and grasslands in the past 20 years. China adheres to green development, and by doing so, is helping the entire world. In spring 2019, the results of a NASA environmental study were published. From 2000 to 2017, China had been responsible for about a quarter of the new green area created worldwide. This made it the world’s biggest contributor. At the same time, builders of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge have made a promise, that its construction would not force the dolphins from their natural habitat. Indeed, the China’s environmental protection revolution has been transforming the country’s economic and energy structure. (278 words)

The Sino Singapore, Tianjin eco city a sustainable metropolis that will be engineered from scratch. The ambitious 20-year project will span over 30 square kilo meters and boasts an array of green technology and renewable energy sources. The city will be a thriving commercial hub housing hundreds of businesses while offering a sustainable lifestyle to 350,000 residents. Within just 8 months of treatment the team successfully transformed the once toxic reservoir into what is now known as changing Lake. Then, they can focus on their next challenge powering the eco city. Agents of energy the vortex engine is a state-of-the-art power station that artificially creates a tornado that then turns hundreds of wind turbines, such a system generates energy according to the city's power needs reducing wastage. At least 20% of the city's total power supply will be based on renewable energy. The first time in the world that such a standard has been imposed on an urban center. Tianjin is marked by intense summers and overcast winters creating extreme variance in the availability of sunlight. Prevailing winds also fluctuate wildly across the seasons at their lowest wind speeds hit only two meters per second which To adapt to prevailing climate conditions city planners decided to employ a variety of renewable energy devices to maximize sunlight. Engineers installed a sea of solar panels on the Eco city's eastern boundary these panels can generate up to 6.6 million kilowatt hours enough to power nearly 5,000 households for a year. Giant wind turbines were also installed at the mouth of the city's historic G canal specially designed to operate even with light breezes these turbines are sturdy enough to withstand strong winds breezes these turbines are sturdy enough to withstand strong winds. The city struggling to meet demand to maximize efficiency city planners must find a way to integrate the various power generators their solution. A power generation and storage plant simply known as number two energy station the facility will be China's first integrated power station featuring sustainable technology it will also be one of the first in the world to combine up to five different sources of renewable energy.

Imposing Efficient and Green Enabled 5 Key Sectors to Save Malaysia’s Environment Plague and Economy

As for energy sector, there are two issues, which is to increase the efficiency of energy us while in terms of energy generation, is to rush towards renewable energy. Therefore, we need a comprehensive Energy Efficiency Act to increase energy efficiency in our country. For renewable energy, we need to increase FiT (Feed-in-Tariff) and stop corporate subsidies to the fossil fuel energy sector.

For public transportation, a holistic system is necessary to establish broader relationship and unite the various types of transport as the solution. Thus, we should focus on the provision of incentives and tax cuts should be made affordable for hybric vehicles.

Next is the construction sector. We should transform all the construction conducted into sustainable green building. Enforce government building and residentials and also the commercial buildings that should fit the green buildings concept.

As for the water sector, it is compulsory to make it efficient. There are more technology in the management and use of water resources needed to provide quality and prevent water loss.

Lastly, in term of waste management, our biggest issue is the huge number of dirty landfills. To complement the government and the private sector, the third generator of civil organizations should be given more support for their efforts to raise awareness among the public, such as MENGO.

These inisiatives could not only protect the environment, but also generate economic benefits. In the long run, we may take this opportunity to become a technology leader in this region.

As Myanmar develops and urbanises, building, roads and bridges that meet international standards alone will not do. It is also important to systematically grow and preserve trees and green spaces in the city. The example of modern buildings together with parks is a popular trend in developed cities such as New York, Sydney, Tokyo and Singapore. Yangon, the commercial capital of Myanmar, has opportunities to become a green city. One of the main reasons for declining green areas in cities is the proliferation of high-rise buildings like condominiums and residential complexes.
Housing projects are necessary from a commercial point of view, but green areas are also important for a city, so there needs to be a balance. In Yangon, gardens and parks originally occupied one fourth of the city. But Yangon’s green areas will gradually disappear if housing keeps expanding. Building design is also important, and condominiums should provide places to grow plants and place flowerpots. Due to the many utility cables and poles in urban areas, only certain types of plants and trees can thrive.

Japan's Yokohama City will engage in a trial project that illustrates the development of a low-carbon hydrogen supply chain model using renewable energy in the Tokyo and Yokohama coastal regions. The project will use the electricity generated by the Hama Wing wind power plant near the center of Yokohama to generate hydrogen. Wind power generation equipment will achieve zero carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, while hydrogen energy storage will use reusable hybrid vehicle batteries to store energy, so that it can be developed with care for the environment. Moreover, a simple hydrogen-filled car, the first in Japan, will be used to supply hydrogen energy to power forklifts operating in markets and factories. The proposal was presented at the 50th Annual Meeting of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) in Yokohama in May. Preliminary calculations estimate the reduction of CO2 by more than 80% compared to conventional means using this low carbon hydrogen supply chain. （150 words）

SINGAPORE ENVIRONMENT STORY

Singapore's last few decades have had to overcome various challenges that need to be solved. Unlike today, this shows that Singapore has successfully overcome these challenges. Now the country is more hygine and hawkers are better than ever before and air pollution is in a bad spot. In the past there were also problems with housing where there were many residents facing homelessness and squatter problems. the last landfill in the mindland is on 1999. Offshore also was commisioned. A river also a dumping ground. The river water is very polluted and they aim to clean it in 10 years. In the meantime, Singapore has successfully taught its people how to discipline their country's environment so that it is less polluted and fresh. Based on the attached video, we can see that they have been promoting this positive value since childhood so that it can be applied to adulthood. (147 words)

WORLD'S GREENEST BUILDING IN AMSTERDAM

The Edge, in Amsterdam, is officially the greenest office building in the world. It's also the testing ground for a radical, highly connected new way of working, where employees have no set workspaces and can dial in their individual climate and lighting preferences via an app.

It starts with a smartphone app developed by the building’s main tenant, the consulting firm Deloitte. When workers arrived at the Edge, a camera recognizes them by their license plate for automatic access and because it’s the Netherlands, there are charges available for electric cars.

Inside the building, the workers don’t have a personal desk. Workspaces are assigned based on their schedule of the day. This concept is called Hot Desking and it’s what allows Deloitte to have 2500 workers but less than half as many desks at its Dutch’s HQ. The app knows the preferences of the light. When they arrive at the workspace the lights dim or brighten based on their stored settings.

So what makes this all possible is the LED light panels developed by Phillips specifically for the Edge are actually powered by low voltage Ethernet cables which every light in the building becomes its own internet connected data hub with 28000 sensors that makes the building and its users smarter.

Green Environment (Zero Waste) in Japan

Kamikatsu village produces almost no trash in its city, and it known as the trashless town. Kamikatsu has a population of around 1,500 people and in the 1990s was doing nearly no recycling. They used to burn all the garbages and it will create carbon dioxide omisions that became dangerous, therefore the nature around them was suffering, so a decision was made. Kamikatsu was strive to have a change. They start with the path towards zero waste and a new way of living. Everything has to get recycled. Even though at the beginning, it was a difficult move for everyone, but eventually they succeeded with a very great outcome. In short, Kamikatsu village in Japan has transitioned its commitment to sustainability to a new level. While the majority of the nation has a recycling rate of about 20%, Kamikatsu with a whopping 80% surpasses its neighbours. After becoming aware of the risks of carbon monoxide associated with garbage burning, the city established the Zero Waste Declaration with the target to be completely waste-free by 2020.

When Trees Meet Buildings - The Growing Trend of Integrating Nature and Metal that is Conquering The World

The prehistoric building ever known to have trees planted on buildings was the famous Babylon tower but it was never found. Its imagery however was kept alive by artist in the ancient times. A prominent example of integrated buildings and nature is the Willis Faber and Dumas Headquarters in Ipswich in the UK designed by Sir Norman Foster in 1975. The building features a reflective double leaf facade and a grass-covered roof. Austrian artist Friedensrech Hundertwasser for example designed apartment building and hotels incorporating full grown trees among its foundation in 1980s and 1990s in Vienna and elsewhere within the country.

Small parks in urban cities can decrease up to 7 degree Celsius in the environment while trees planted along streets are known to reduce up to 3 degree Celsius. Green roofs decrease 4.4 degrees Celsius and if integrated along urban cities could reduce temperature further for about 7 degree Celsius. Trees can also reduce exhaust gasses and chemical content in the air. For example, trees reduce nitrogen oxide content in air for about 75% if planted in cities.  Deciduous trees planted on buildings offer passive solar shading in the summer while allowing sun's rays deep into the building during winter. Aside from physical benefits offered by plants, trees and shrubs are known to provide psychological advantages too. Hospital patients with green views within the hospital recovers faster than the average while plants reduce stress and increase productivity among staffs. Henceforth, many cities are currently incorporating green roofs into sustainable buildings to reduce the psychological impact of living in dense urban cities. The trees are first around 3 to 6 metres tall when they are first planted. The trees are allowed to grow maximum height till 9 metres before being pruned.  The trees are tethered to the building using steel wires to ensure their stability in the building. Buildings that incorporate trees need special consideration in structure such as additional strengthening and reinforcements in areas. The embodied carbon of the steel used in reinforcement or building superstructures need to be increased as well as maintained consistently. To tackle the issue of fire on tree scrapers, established guidelines are followed to prevent fires along with regular pruning of plants while ensuring the soil contains relatively low percentage of organic matter.

Bosco Verticale or Vertical Forest in Milan by Stefano Boeri Architects are residential towers standing at 112 metres and 76 metres tall which became the first successful example of tall buildings fully covered in trees. Milan uses its access to underground water for its trees in the vertical building. Stefano Boeri is currently expanding his work to other countries such as Switzerland, China and the Netherlands. This idea has also inspired Vietnamese studio Vo Trong Nghia to incorporate trees into buildings especially in planting such trees in the balconies of the private universities in Hanoi. Belgian architect, Vincent Callebaut's Agora Tower in Taipei based on a form the double helix DNA features extensively planted balconies. On the other hand, British designer, Thomas Heatherwick's 1000 Trees is a building featuring trees and shrubs on its structural columns in Shanghai. Heatherwick's Maggie's Centre in Leeds uses roofs to create a stepped garden complete with lush shrubs and vegetation in the United Kingdom. In Singapore, WOHA continue to design green architecture, including the Oasia Hotel Downtown, a 27-storey tower with trellis like facade along its building. It was named the Best Tall Building Worldwide in 2018 by Council on Tall Building and Urban Habitats.

The latest engineers established carbon-negative materials such as Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) or glue laminated timber (glulam) to manufacture better structural materials when building tree scrapers. The future of tree scrapers are seen as ongoing projects with high rise structures such as 18-storey Tree Tower Toronto by Penda and the 350metre tall Sumitomo Forestry's headquarters in Tokyo by Nikken Sekkei, showing the continuous growing trend of today's engineer pushing the limit of integrating nature and building.

Recycling For Green Environment

In 2015, human had produced 6.3 billion metric tons of plastic waste. Ellen MacArthur who is the Chair of Trustees in Ellen MacArthur foundation said, in order to solve the plastic packaging problem, they need to effectively rethink the entire system. From one which is linear to one where it can be recovered and fed back into the economy as a valuable plastic material and can enter the environment. The ultimate goal of the new plastics economy is to design the economy where plastic packaging never becomes waste. If we recycle the used bottles, we can clean it and recreate it. We can use it over again. With many option such as cleaning it then fill up with water to use next time. So we can save up our money without buying another bottle of water. With some creativity ideas, we can use our spear bottle to make as a diy decoration to decore our house. So it can save the environment by recycling the used bottle or used it to decore our house or office. (176 words)

China Builds World’s First Forest City

China is building a city covered in plants the world’s first forest city designed by Italian architect, Stefano Bradley. The forest city is located in a mountainous region north of the city of Ludo in southern China. The city will host 30, 000 peoples and include offices, houses, hotels, hospitals and school. The buildings will draw on geothermal energy to provide cooling and heating systems for interior air conditioning. In addition, solar panels will be installed over the rooftops to harvest solar energy. A total of 40, 000 tress and almost 1 million plans representing over a hundred species will be planted on building facades in parks and on city streets. Moreover, the trees and plants will absorb an estimated 10, 000 tons of carbon dioxide and 57 tons of fine dust pollution each year. Meanwhile, greenery will produce 900 tons of oxygen annually. This project implemented due to Beijing issued red alert because of severe smog, the reading was above 300 micrograms carbon dioxide. Its spell from November to December 2015, the air pollution was so thick it blocked views.
