Climate action Had Green Cities work.

氣候行動了綠色城市的工作。

Meet Greg Greg lives in a busy city that is filled with smog and air that is polluted from all the factories.

遇見格雷格 格雷格生活在一個繁忙的城市裡，這裡充滿了煙霧，空氣也被所有工廠汙染。

He has a long commute to work and usually gets stuck in traffic for hours.

他的上班時間很長，通常會被堵在路上幾個小時。

The weather is always gloomy, and he is constantly sick.

天氣總是陰沉沉的，他也經常生病。

This leaves him stuck in his bed on most weekends and causes him to miss work during the week.

這讓他在大多數週末都被困在床上，導致他在一週內錯過了工作。

After many trips to the doctor because of his health, he decides he needs to move to a city that has cleaner air and healthier environment.

因為身體原因，他多次去看醫生，他決定要搬到一個空氣更清新、環境更健康的城市。

Luckily for Greg, there are cities that have everything he is looking for.

幸運的是，對Greg來說，有些城市有他想要的一切。

Sustainable cities, also known as green cities, are best described as cities designed with consideration to environmental impact.

可持續城市又稱綠色城市，最好的描述是在設計城市時考慮到環境影響。

They are inhabited by citizens dedicated to minimizing the output of harmful greenhouse gasses like carbon dioxide and methane into the atmosphere, as well as the minimization of required inputs of energy, water and food.

居住在這些地方的公民致力於最大限度地減少向大氣層排放二氧化碳和甲烷等有害溫室氣體，並最大限度地減少所需的能源、水和糧食投入。

Green cities accomplished this through different components, including their architectures, transportation and use of alternative energy like solar power.

綠色城市是通過不同的組成部分來實現的，包括其建築、交通和使用太陽能等替代能源。

Green cities practice urban farming, which is the process of growing and distributing food as well as raising animals in and around the city or in urban areas.

綠色城市實行城市農業，即在城市及周邊地區或城區種植和分配糧食以及飼養動物的過程。

This means the animals are not given large amounts of antibiotics, and they're processed differently, cutting back on the amount of toxic chemicals into the air.

這意味著動物不會被給予大量的抗生素，而且它們的加工方式也不一樣，減少了有毒化學品進入空氣的數量。

Many Green cities air also car free to reduce their carbon footprint.

許多綠色城市的空氣也無車，以減少他們的碳足跡。

This is mostly achievable because of the emphasis on proximity, which means landmarks aren't too far from people's homes.

之所以能做到這一點，主要是因為強調了就近性，即地標性建築離人們的家不會太遠。

The closeness allows them to reach their destinations with reduce transit times using public transportation, green cities, air fighting back against climate change, bringing people closer together and giving them healthier environments with more and more popping up around the world.

緊密的關係讓他們可以利用公共交通、綠色城市、空氣反擊氣候變化等減少運輸時間到達目的地，拉近人們之間的距離，讓他們擁有更健康的環境，越來越多的人在世界各地出現。

Isn't it time your community made the change?
