Card 5 questions:

Would you like to live in an eco-city? Why or why not?

Yes, I would like to live in an eco-city. Eco-cities utilize sustainable technologies and aim to minimize impact on the environment. This appeals to me as I want to live in an environmentally friendly way and reduce my carbon footprint.

How would your life change if you moved to an eco-city?

My life would change quite significantly. I would have more access to sustainable and green transportation options like electric vehicles, bicycles and public transit. Buildings would utilize renewable energy sources and cut waste. There would be more green spaces and opportunities for outdoor activities. Overall, my daily routine and habits would need to adjust to a more sustainable lifestyle.

What habits would you abandon to live in it?

I would need to abandon habits like excessive consumption, wasting resources and using single-use plastics. I would adopt new habits like recycling and composting properly, using public transit more often, drying clothes on a line instead of a dryer, and minimizing food waste.

Who should be responsible for protecting our resources – government or individuals?

Both the government and individuals have important roles to play in protecting our resources. The government can implement policies, regulations and incentives to encourage sustainable practices and green technologies. However, individuals also need to change their daily habits and consumption patterns to live more sustainably. It requires action and commitment from both sides to truly protect our natural resources for future generations.
