Smoke-free city
"Mr. Lin, have you ever thought about the plan to turn Shanghai into a 'smoke-free city'?" Mr. Wang Bo from the northwest asked curiously.
Of course, this is not just curiosity, but also a faint worry.
If Lin Feng built Shanghai into a 'smoke-free city', then the mountain city might not be as attractive as it is now. After all, Shanghai is an international financial metropolis, and its status is unmatched by mountain cities.
From this point of view, no city in China can compare.
Even Hong Kong, or the imperial capital, cannot compare in terms of economy. Especially now that Lin Feng has appeared, other cities cannot compare.
If Lin Feng did the same thing, he would be a little helpless.
"Not yet! Because Shanghai wants to build a 'smoke-free city', the investment is too big, and the changes are too big. Instead, the mountain city can be used as a pilot. A pilot for a large city." Lin Feng said with relief, "
We can see from this what problems will arise in the process of truly transforming a city into a smoke-free city."
Mr. Northwest Wang Bo breathed a sigh of relief.
In this way, he will have more confidence.
Mr. Wang Bo of the Northwest and Lin Feng are both activists. Therefore, Mr. Wang Bo of the Northwest held a press conference in an official name and announced the "Smoke-free City" plan!
At this time, the whole world was shocked.
Although many real estate developers have proposed the plan of a ‘smoke-free city’, most of it is nothing more than a gimmick.
Because today is a world of cars. Without cars, you can't move at all. In this case, a "smoke-free city" is nothing more than a gimmick.
Of course, there are cities in the world without cars, such as Venice in Italy, which have no cars. However, Venice is a water city, and all means of transportation rely on boats. Naturally, there are no cars. Therefore, Venice is not considered a 'smoke-free city'.
'. Especially, although there are no cars, there are still various speedboats. Gasoline still needs to be used.
However, when it comes to smoke-free cities, there are still two in the world.
One is the well-known capital of Iceland, Reykjavik. It is located in Faksa Bay. It is the capital of the Nordic island country Iceland and the largest port city in Iceland. It is geographically very close to the Arctic Circle and is the northernmost capital in the world.
Why Reykjavik, the capital of Iceland, is called the 'Smoke-free City' is because Reykjavik's energy source is mainly geothermal energy from hot springs. Even after the hot spring water is transported through pipelines, the water temperature is still as high as over 90 degrees Celsius.
, Therefore, Reykjavik rarely uses oil, coal and other resources to generate energy, and as a result, the city's pollution level is extremely low, so it also has the reputation of a "smoke-free city".
Therefore, Reykjavik's 'smoke-free city' is also irreproducible. No other country in the world can do it. Moreover, Reykjavik is not really without cars, but due to climate effects, walking on the streets is difficult.
There are not many cars in the city and the population is small, so it is known as a 'smoke-free city'.
The other is a small city in Spain: Pontevedra. A city in northwest Spain and the capital of the province of Pontevedra. It is on the Atlantic Ocean and is located where the Leres River flows into Leres Bay. The population is only 82,946 people. As for,
Why this small city is also a smoke-free city is because of the government's decree.
In the early 1990s, Pontevedra actually had a lot of cars. For a small city of 80,000 people, the number of cars flowing on the streets every day exceeded 20,000. Therefore, traffic jams were a common occurrence in Pontevedra. Not only was there no parking
There was no space, including space for pedestrians to walk. The traffic conditions at that time were much worse than those in any city in China.
At the same time, due to the large number of cars, the air pollution at that time was extremely serious. In the words of Spanish people, the air here was worse than that in Paris.
Faced with this situation, the Pontevedra city government believed that this situation could not continue. Therefore, it issued a decree mandating that in this city with an area of 120 square kilometers, everyone can only walk and cannot walk.
Driving. No vehicles are allowed to enter the city.
Therefore, since then, there have been no more congestions, no dirty air, no green lights, and no car accidents in Pontevedra. The whole city has become a truly 'smoke-free city'.
Of course, Pontevedra's smoke-free city is also particularly special, that is, the city is small. Moreover, it is not that there are no cars. It is just that vehicles are not allowed to enter the city. The entire city is surrounded by a huge circular parking lot.
Surrounded by a giant parking lot that can accommodate over 8,000 cars.
All citizens who go to work in the city drive to the parking lot and then walk 20 minutes to work in the city. That’s why Pontevedra’s traffic and air are so fresh. But this is only because the city is small. You have to relax
Going to big cities to implement such a plan is undoubtedly digging your own grave.
Therefore, a 'smoke-free city' sounds very dreamy and desirable. But after all, it is just a mirror image. This is just a thought. No one thinks that it can really be realized in today's modern metropolises.
'' plan.
This is something that no country can do. Not even a country as developed as the United States can do this.
However, now, Shancheng has announced that it will build Shancheng into a truly 'smoke-free city'. This is really scary.
If Lin Feng hadn't been sitting here, all reporters would have thought that this was just another fanciful decision. Because, this is absolutely impossible to achieve. It is impossible for any modern metropolis to be without cars. Without cars, this city would be useless.
Will lose vitality.
Pedestrian streets are good! But it’s very simple. Once the distance of the pedestrian street is too long, it will be torture for all shopping people, except women. Of course, even women, if they walk the same distance after shopping in the pedestrian street,
If you go for a ride, they will go crazy.
Therefore, it is impossible to build a smoke-free city! Especially in a city with undulating heights like a mountain city, the terrain is too steep and too complicated. Without cars, it would be impossible to reach the top of the mountain.
If you want a 'smoke-free city', isn't that a joke? Do you mean that all Chinese people should return to the bicycle kingdom they had decades ago?
If that's the case, the people won't agree. Because the city is too big. If you let people cycle to work for an hour or two like before, they won't agree. Especially when it's windy and rainy, who would be happy.
This kind of 'smoke-free city' is a step backwards in history!
