Asia shares a vision of making all its cities livable one day. The knowledge and financial resources needed to realize that vision exists. But if the challenges of climate change and pollution are to be met, we must reduce energy demand in cities and the undesirable environmental impact associated with energy production and consumption. We must also address the pollution of watersheds and the air. To achieve this, we must manage the urbanization process, city form and design, urban density, transport and logistics systems more efficiently and effectively.
