Masdar is the largest project in Abu Dhabi it’s a city where it’s free of carbon, zero-west and car free. So the footprint number of Abu Dhabi could reduce. However, this type of project isn’t practical. I’m going to write down the 2 reason why its not practical
The first reason is that masdar is build only for a population of 47500 people. There around 4.104,695 people live in the UAE , so this want fit all of them. Therefore they should increase the capacity of the population but its difficult because there are no more good areas to build and it is impossible to destroy a city and build another one.
The second reason is that the cost of building this kind of cool cites. Masdar costs about $22 billion. This kind of many can be presented most of all countries but not the poor ones. Also that one cool city is not enough for on country they should build more were they will pay double the price. Were this many can build more than one project to reduce the CO2 problem in the world rather than cool cites.
It’s great to have a city like Masdar were air is clean of carbon, but it costs a lot and the capacity isn’t enough for everyone. Whereas building of a cool city is enough to solve the problem of carbon in the world
