Summarising: Veselitskaya, Karasev, and Beloshitskiy (2019) said that when ICT's are used in smart cities, they benefit the environment by decreasing the amount of resources used and the emissions of carbon dioxide. ]]> 2021-04-19 14:03:52 UTC https://padlet.com/basmaelkholy/elmvsidxquckchl5/wish/1433182789 From "Smart Cities: Socio-Technical Innovation for Empowering Citizens" page 3 basmaelkholy https://padlet.com/basmaelkholy/elmvsidxquckchl5/wish/1433214659 Original text: "Advances in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) are at the centre of the socio-technical innovation that underpins 'Smart City' programs all around the world."

 Paraphrased: people are creating progress in ICT's. This field is the heart of the social and technical development of the applications that supports the concept of a smart city (Babar, 2016).]]> 2021-04-19 14:09:40 UTC https://padlet.com/basmaelkholy/elmvsidxquckchl5/wish/1433214659 as you can see, an extract was used here to further explain the idea of ICT, which is what the topic sentence demands. basmaelkholy https://padlet.com/basmaelkholy/elmvsidxquckchl5/wish/1433275336 2021-04-19 14:20:48 UTC https://padlet.com/basmaelkholy/elmvsidxquckchl5/wish/1433275336 Here the extract deals briefly with the idea of the how ICT's benefit the environment. You should have another extract that explains this one more or provide an example. basmaelkholy https://padlet.com/basmaelkholy/elmvsidxquckchl5/wish/1433524734 2021-04-19 15:07:09 UTC https://padlet.com/basmaelkholy/elmvsidxquckchl5/wish/1433524734 From "Smart Cities: Socio-Technical Innovation for Empowering Citizens" p.5 basmaelkholy https://padlet.com/basmaelkholy/elmvsidxquckchl5/wish/1433536219 Original text: "Smart mobility is concerned about utilising ICT solutions to facilitate transportation systems. Smart mobility targets safety, efficiency and comfort of transportation system while highlighting sustainable and green solutions to reduce carbon footprints."

Summarising: to explain, when the mobility of the city, for example, becomes smart, this does not only benefit the transportation systems by making them safe, efficient, and comfortable , it also helps in limiting the carbon dioxide amounts (Babar, 2016).

Commentary: this could be achieved by installing sensors in other cars that alert the city's management systems that an old vehicle, for example, is emitting large amounts of harmful gases, so that it could be taken off the streets. Another aspect of the city that could be made smart is the environment.]]> 2021-04-19 15:09:07 UTC https://padlet.com/basmaelkholy/elmvsidxquckchl5/wish/1433536219 From "Smart Cities: Socio-Technical Innovation for Empowering Citizens" p.5 basmaelkholy https://padlet.com/basmaelkholy/elmvsidxquckchl5/wish/1442026746 Original text: "Smart environment deals with the smart utilisation of energy and natural resources to preserve nature. A variety of research topics and ICT solutions could be in this category such as utilising renewable energy, employing energy grids, smart metering, smart lighting, waste and water management"

Summarizing and quoting: a smart environment devices ICT solutions and research to protect nature while consuming energy and natural resources. These solutions include using "renewable energy, employing energy grids, smart metering, smart lighting, waste and water management"  (Babar, 2016, p.5)]]> 2021-04-21 11:17:26 UTC https://padlet.com/basmaelkholy/elmvsidxquckchl5/wish/1442026746 From "The 'Smart City' Card" basmaelkholy https://padlet.com/basmaelkholy/elmvsidxquckchl5/wish/1458817842 Original text: "smart meters that communicate between consumers and energy providers, and help optimise supply and demand balance across
the electricity grid, saving energy in various ways."

Summarising and quoting: for instance, Burte 
(2014) said that smart metering link the consumers with the energy providers and "help optimise supply and demand balance across the electricity grid" which creates innumerous ways to save energy (p. 3).
