Overview of RNL's sustainable design framework.

3. The world is using 1.3 planets

4. Europe = 3 planets

5. US = 5 planets

6. World Wildlife Federation – Living Planet Report 2008 The earth’s biocapacity is 2.1 global hectares / person The world’s average footprint is 2.7 global hectares / person UAE and USA have footprints over 9 global hectares / person

7. World Wildlife Federation – Living Planet Report 2008 Many countries have low ecological footprints – there is a lack of global equity in the use of the earth’s resources.

8. Can we live abundantly within the limits of one earth?

9. Can we offer future generations an opportunity for an even better life than ours?

84. “ An Average city of 1 million people requires more than 4 million pounds of food, 625,000 tons of freshwater and 9500 tons of fuel energy every 24 hours” - Ken Yeang

85. Cities consume 75% of the world’s energy and produce 80% of its greenhouse gas emissions.

86. The average city dwellers has a lower carbon footprint than those who live outside the city.

87. In the US, residents of top 100 cities have a footprint 14% smaller than the US average. Source: A Brookings Institute study released May 29, 2008, Shrinking the Carbon Footprint of Metropolitan America

88. Cities currently cover a little over 3% of the planets usable land area. - NASA

89. Cities are seeing population increases, but also decreases in fertility rates. Fertility Rates by Nation 2.1 is the “Replacement Rate”

90. The 6 million squatters in Mumbai account for one-sixth of India’s GDP. - Stewart Brand
